"The cemetery is directly associated with the remains of an historic farmstead dating from the early 19th to the early 20th century. An inscription ("WLW & BLW 1925") located on the concrete enclosure constructed around the well, combined with deed research information (Table 12) link this cemetery with the Watkins family. The cemetery was marked as "relocated" on Tract H-256 (Cemetery A) owned by William H.Y. Moore in 1944 (see Table 1 and Figure 1).
