The graveyard began out of necessity by James Walker, Sr. upon the death of his wife. Elizabeth Walker, the wife of James, died on August 14, 1678. The graveyard was located on his land. The graveyard probably had burials previous to 1678, but there are no markers or records to verify same.

The graveyard is located on a rise that overlooks the Taunton River. The graveyard is about the size of a football field. The boundary of the graveyard is denoted by a stonewall. There are about 169 people buried in the graveyard.
