If I am understanding correctly you are seeing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crater_chain which are craters caused by debris blasted out when another crater is formed.

Thank you! Glad to see there's a Wikipedia article about it. And good to learn the formal name for this formation: "catena" (plural "catenae").
