Watson burials in Rensselaerville, NY

I knew that a number of Watsons from Rhode Island were early settlers of this small village in Albany County, NY. Burials for the following family members in the Rensselaerville Cemetery are listed on findagrave. Every one of the entries includes a photograph. Thanks to the contributors!! I have added dates and parentage, if known. I suspect that many other Watsons are buried either in this cemetery or nearby but do not yet have confirmation.
