About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Location: Cuivre Township 52N-Range 2W, Section 28. East of Route HH. Alternate name of Porter Cemetery; not to be confused with the other Porter Cemetery near Frankford, Pike County, Missouri.

Dorsey and Porter Family Cemetery is an unofficial name, but well researched. According to the 1850 census, the property is occupied by Edward Worthington Dorsey, wife, Eleanor (Ellen) Elizabeth Brown Dorsey and family. Several children of their daughter, Comfort Worthington Dorsey, and her husband, Gilchrist Porter, are buried here. The 1875 Plat map for Pike County, Missouri shows the property then owned by James Overton Broadhead, husband of Mary Snowden Dorsey; another daughter of Edward W. and Ellen Dorsey.

Note (from 1985): The present owner stated that he remembered several more stones, but that they had been hauled away and put in hog wallows, etc. by his father many years ago. ~source, Pike County Genealogical Association according to records copied by Bill and Mollie Price and Charles J. Moore, Nov. 6th 1985
