I've noticed the shortage of info on Watauga also. I did find something on the internet that can possibly be of use to someone. It happened I believe, when the TVA was building a dam somewhere in eastern TN and they had to flood a lot of land to do this. They first had to move all of the burial sites to another location. I found these long ago on the TVA website.
Graves in Wautauga and area which TVA moved:
Campbell Zachri 1800 1880 Watauga Reservoir TN Carter Morton 7-36 1947 Union Baptist 38
Campbell Julia 1807 1890 Watauga Reservoir TN Carter Campbell #5 16-2 1947 Union Baptist 3
CAMPBELL MARIE 1790 1870 Norris Reservoir TN CAMPBELL NELSON-CAMPBELL 108-1 1935 Bakers Forge Mem 4 EH-M-Z-2
CAMPBELL JOE 1790 1870 Norris Reservoir TN CAMPBELL NELSON-CAMPBELL 108-3 1935 Bakers Forge Mem 4 EH-M-Z-2
DAVIS MATTIE 1747 1805 Norris Reservoir TN UNION WHITED 94-14 1935 BIG BARREN MEM 43 SB-41
Any more than these I didn't copy and no longer have the exact website.
