Other Events:

RESEARCH: Name: Possible parent of William T. Walker. Goodspeed states that William Walker and Jesse White "brothers in law" moved to Carroll Co abt 1833 Website on descendants of Garrett Flippo (Carroll County Families) indicates that Elizabeth Flippo married 1) Edmund Jones abt 1825, 2) unknown Blevins and 3) William Walker, abt 1839. It lists Charles and Mary Ann as the children of Blevins and Melvina ("Vina") as the daughter of Walker. It does not mention William T. Walker, who is listed ABOVE Charles and Mary Ann in the 1850 census, and it appears that their surname is also Walker From this it seems likely that Elizabeth was left with William T., the child of William Walker's previous marriage, as well as her own children.
