(Side note- The tombstones in the Dollahan Family Cemetery were at one time badly destroyed, preservation began sometime before 1957, during which time dates on tombstones were not accurate but a guess from the originals. Robert Dollahan's for instance was reported to be along the front wall of the cemetery face down during the preservation process. Virgil C. Dollahon recorded in 1967, he looked for the original headstone but never found it.)
