William was born in 1878. William Wooten ... He passed away in 1921. [1]
Some info online says that William Wallace Wooten is buried at Catheys Creek Baptist Church Cemetery but this is not true. I have been to my great-grandfather and great-grandmother's graves and they are both buried side-by-side in the primitive baptist church not far from Cox Chapel. Not far from their graves is baby Harold's grave, a stillborn child of my grandmother's.
