  	The construction of the Pepacton Reservoir in Delaware County, N.Y. began in 1947 and was completed in 1955. Removals from the following cemeteries took place in 1953 and 1954: Old Arena, New Arena, Cat Hollow, Conklin, Edget, Flynn, J. R. Shaver, K. E. Davis Burying Ground, Shaver, Shavertown, Union Grove and Weaver Burying Ground. Most of the remains were removed to the Walton Cemetery in Walton, Delaware County, New York as well as other local cemeteries. Due to a lack of cemetery information, little information was known about the dates of birth and death of the individuals moved or their relationships to others. If they were not sponsored by a living relative, the persons moved were placed into anonymous graves without personal information, associations or headstones. These are a few of the people associated in this file that were moved to other cemeteries. Moved to Walton Cemetery from Shavertown Cemetery. Walton Cemetery Walton, Delaware County, New York, USA.
