"The cemetery's land was originally a part of the Beaver farm. It is a small cemetery of about one-half acre. The first people to be buried in this cemetery were Billie Beaver and his wife Polly. Their graves are enclosed with a large sandstone block. On their original stones, with initails "B.B." and "P.B." are dates of birth and death. They are hand-carved, and due to weathering are barely legible. Calvin Dunaway, who died in 1865, was buried elsewhere, but was moved to Beaver Cemetery when his wife Mary died and was buried there in 1897. Their daughter Nancy Tennessee married Billie and Polly Beaver's grandson, Christopher Columbus Beaver. They are buried at this cemetery. Two other of Calvin and Mary's daughters are also buried here: Ardena Dunaway Tilford and Missouri Ann Dunaway Pendergraft. Billie and Polly Beaver's children were: Martin Van Buren Beaver Sr., Russell Cain Beaver Sr., Artamincie Beaver Bicknell, Mary Oliver Beaver Pendergraft, Logan Beaver, John Henry Beaver, Mahala Jane Beaver Henderson, Temperance Huckaby Beaver Perkins, and Nathan Patton Beaver."

He was rushed to Cassville but died on the way before medical attention could be obtained.Will was one of the men employed in work of preparing the highway between Cassville and Washburn for black-topping. Reaching Old Washburn, he stopped and picked up two other men who are also at work on the highway. They had gone only a short distance when a dog ran out into the path of the car, which turned completely around in the road and turned over. Will was stuck by the steering wheel about the center of the body. He spoke a few words following the accident, saying that the blow had killed him.
After an examination by Dr. G.W. Salyer, the body was taken to Koon Funeral Home where it was prepared for interment. The two men riding with him were only slightly injured. He is survived by his widow and three children; a daughter age 12, one son 9 and another 19 months old, his mother and one brother, Arthur and three sisters.
