While growing up in Raynham, Massachusetts, I didn't realize, nor did my family, that ancestors Stephen and Esther Williams (my 4th great grandparents) were buried in a small cemetery on the south side of town.
Inscription: "Stephen Williams, Revolutionary Soldier, Died Dec. 25, 1847, Aged 95 years"
This grave is in the Shaw Cemetery, which is located behind a house at 1048 Locust Street, Raynham, Massachusetts.
Inscription: "Esther, wife of Stephen Williams, Died Sept. 25 1847, Aged 92 years"
This cemetery obviously needs some care and restoration.
This aerial photograph shows how the land surrounding the Shaw Cemetery has been excavated.Â
