Dawson Family Cemetery
It is Hoped that someone in the Coneto/Bethel area of Pitt County, NC will recheck this information. I believe this little Cemetery is located between Bethel and Coneto off Hwy. 64 before Hwy. 42. I apologize that I cannot draw locations of the graves. Respectfully submitted.    Martha Gay Morton, May 19, 2001
