With Apple Watch fall detection (non cellular watch) will my location come up With Apple Watch 5 (non cellular) if I fall and cannot summon help will watch send my location. I cannot turn on WiFi calling because it will only respond to location listed. Am I correct?

Location history of apple watch. There HAS to be a way to track my watch's location independent of my phone. It has cellular and it was on when I'm pretty sure I was no longer near it. I'm near positive it's at my house but would love to verify it. Please don't tell me look it up via siginificant locations because that is obviously useless. The phone and watch apparently sharing this service is bad enough but to add to it is the fact that it won't even show me past the past three locations it deemed important. Please someone have an answer for this. My GPS in my house for some reason is very accurate and it would be nice to have an idea of where to focus my already pretty well exhaustive search efforts.

Your GPS coordinates, which uses all the things you described to help emergency services locate you. Modern map systems combined with GPS are pretty accurate.
