I did a bit more investigating and the information which I have is that John Walter was the firstborn of William Alfred and Amelia Rand Myatt and was born c 1848.
His first marriage was to a ______ Fowler which produced two children, Reuben and Annie.
His second marriage was to ________ Stallings.
The statement "relationship between Walter Myatt and the Smith/Myatt
cemetery" does not mean that Walter is buried there. He may be, but there is no stone which we have found with his name on it.
There is another Walter, the son of Nathan Ira and Laland Honeycutt who was born in the early 1900s. He is mentioned in David Myatt's book. I don't have any information on him but that is another possibility of the road name.
Speaking of David's book, I notice that Mary Pherabe Myatt is not listed as a daughter of William Alfred and Amelia (which she was), but is listed as having Alfred as her father. The book has the fact that they had seven children but only six are listed. No big deal, even though she is not listed I know in my genes that she was my ggrandmother and that William Alfred was my gggrandfather.
I should have looked a bit more before my blog comments, but I was mainly interested in putting a correct name on the persons mentioned.

Tex Myatt's Post
This a continuation of the conversations (BLOG entries) of Tom Myatt and Bob Williams.
In the 1860 census for W.A. Myatt and Amelia Harrison Rand there was a J.Walter Myatt. We show him as John Walter Myatt in our Website. I would assume this is the Walter Myatt for whom the street is named.
In the 1880 census J.Walter appears in Panther Lake, Wake Co., NC. married to a Bettie, and with two daughters, Anna and Eether.
He does not appear in the 1900 census. However, in the 1910 census he appears as Walter J. Myatt in the Cleveland Twp, Johnston, NC, with his daughter Anna, and sons Reuben (26), James (23), John (20) Walton (16).
All of these entries show that he was born in 1847/1848 or thereabouts. If someone could check this out we could add all of this to our Website.
************
After re-reading my message I decided it was not too clear. Walter Myatt,if I am correct, was the older brother of Amelia and Mary P. Myatt, the Myatt girls who married the Smith brothers. That is the relationship between Walter Myatt and the Smith/Myatt cemetery.
