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.

William Walters realized there was a need for a burial ground, and he donated a large plot behind his barn, and it became The Walters Cemetery.
He was one of the more successful farmers in the Spring Creek area, and lived on the homestead until his death in 1873.

After William's death, Jackson Megrew, who had married William's daughter Nellie, acquired the homestead, and in doing so changed the name of Walter's Cemetery to Megrew Cemetery, as it is known today. Many descendants of William and Jerusha Walters, and local residents of that time period including Martin Snow and family, are buried there.
