Hi,
I noticed there are several Watts in the Awin Community Cemetery, a Sallie
and an Ella that died around 1857. You might look there.
http://www.frontiernet.net/~cmccoy/cemeteries.htm.
I also found in the Mt. Moriah cemetery outside of Pine Apple :Wiley T.
Watts, son of Wiley and Mary Watts b. 1-13-1857, (no death date) Robert
Watts, son of WT and Mary Watts d. 10-23-1854 age 11 months,2 days, Mary E.
Watts, daughter of WT and Mary Watts d. 4-1-1850 aged 3 months, 7 days and
Wiley T. Watts March 26, 1820 - August 27, 1855

Maybe this will help... I seem to have seen the name WileyT. Cates
somewhere, but I just can't find it again.
