CALOMA CEMETERY

​

​Caloma Cemetery is located in Franklin Township Section 29 Township 75 Range 21 in the 200 block of Pioneer Street, 1/2 mile east of 20th Place, about 6 miles northwest of Dallas. The parcel number is 0364000100.

​

Pioneer Street is now a dead-end gravel road, closed east of the cemetery. At the intersection to the west was the former town of Caloma with stores, post office, and a school. Some of the gravestones have been restored by laying them flat on a concrete pad. There is a large, new stone for Alexander and Louisa Dobbins, 1875 and 1876, respectively. Louisa's name was illegible when recorded in the 1976 Marion County cemetery book.

​

There are about 40 gravestones in the cemetery. Signage was added at the cemetery in April 2021.
