John E. Dodge Jr. was a veteran of the Civil War.

 

In addition to placing The American Flag at the site, the group placed a small removable marker on the back of the stone. The registration marker was secured by Don Doucette from the Attleboro Veterans’ Agent. The registration establishes the grave on the list of graves to be remembered on future Memorial Days.
