BIOGRAPHY:
David Watson and his family came from Fayette Co., PA and settled on Gladys Branch of Seneca Creek, both of which now help to form the Seneca Lake [in Ohio]. They are both buried in the David Watson Cemetery, on their farm which is now known as the Patrick Bates farm. This David Watson Cemetery is located up around the Seneca Lake, a few miles from Cambridge, Guernsey Co., OH. There is also an old Jacob Yoho Cemetery which is almost surrounded by the waters of Seneca Lake. The Watson, Wilson, and Yoho families, when they first came to Ohio, all settled on Wills Creek Valley within one to three miles from one another. Found from this is Watsons married Wilsons, Wilsons married Watsons, and Watsons married Yohos.
