The Wilson Cemetery is the only one of the three larger than an acre and was in existence well before the Revolution. Its earliest grave is that of Dorothy How, who died of smallpox in 1764.
All three outlying burial grounds served as the resting place for the residents of the surrounding farms. For generations this was actually called "the Farm Cemetery", and at times the "Morse Cemetery", before it was named the Wilson Cemetery after Wilson Street and the adjacent Wilson Farm.
The Wilson Cemetery section is 1.22 acres and has about 250 headstone. While the Evergreen Cemetery section is about 10 acres and is still in use.
The Massachusetts Historical Commission refers to this cemetery in MACRIS as MRB.804 Wilson Cemetery
