    Notes:

    See attached sources.

    (Research):It is interesting to note that a Samuel Hartley was appointed to the jury to serve the Dickson County court of pleas and quarter sessions in June 1804. This would have been around the time that James and Elizabeth Hartley/Heartley moved from GA to Dickson County.
    I cannot find any census data for Samuel Hartley that would appear to be a possible match to this individual, except for 1830 Washington Co IN, where there is a Samuel Hartley (male 26 - 45) next door to James Hartley (male over 45) and William Hartley (male 26 - 45). A search of WorldConnect reveals a Samuel HArtley, born 1789 in Burke Co NC, the son of James Hartley, born abt 1763, Snow Hill MD.
    This could be an avenue for further research on the possible Hartley connection with our Walker family.

                        Rev. McAdow was one of the Dickson County founders of the church. He lived in Dickson Co from at least 1810-1815, then moved to Jackson Co TN. In the fall of 1828, however, he moved to Bond Co IL. Could his presence, and that of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, have been part of the inspiration for the move of Richard and Levina (Hartley) Tatom and James and Elizabeth (Walker) Hartley from Dickson Co to Bond Co?

                        Additionally, Rev. McAdow and several others of the Cumberland Presbyterian movement came from Orange Co NC and environs. Richard Tatom's family were also from that area. Possible relationship there?

                        Birth:
                        Elizabeth was born in either Georgia or Tennessee. The record in her children's census data predominantly indicates "Tennessee." However, it should be remembered that Elizabeth died in 1835, leaving children from ages 24 down to a newborn infant. Many of the older children did not survive to the time of the 1880 census, which was the first to offer information on the birthplace of parents. The younger children, who really never knew their mother, may have been more confused on the point of her birth.

                        Of more value, perhaps, is evidence of the birthplace of her sister, Mary "Polly" (Walker) Hartley, also born about 1790. (It is not known if they were twins, or just very close in age.) Polly's own enumeration in 1850 and 1860 Dickson County states her birthplace as "Georgia." Additionally, the census data of her children Allen, Jackson, Retha, and John in the 1880 census all stated their mother's birthplace as "Georgia." Retha and John were enumerated in 1900, indicating their mother's birth in Georgia. Retha alone survived to the 1910 census, and in that one census, her mother's birthplace is given as "Tennessee."

                        John E. Hartley's biography in Goodspeed states
                        "John E. Hartley, President of the Stockton Exchange Bank of Stockton, Mo., was born in Dickson County, Tenn., on the 13th of February, 1821, his parents being James and Elizabeth (Walker) Hartley, who were born near Augusta, Ga., and in Tennessee in 1780 and 1790, and died in Cedar county, Mo., and Bond County, Ill. in 1835 and 1855, respectively."
                        While it is a confusing sentence, it probably intended to convey that James Hartley was born in Georgia and Elizabeth (Walker) Hartley in Tennessee.

                        It is likely that Elizabeth was, however, born in Georgia, as her sister born around the same time was, and her younger siblings, George and Elijah were born in Georgia.

                        Died:
                        The date of Elizabeth Hartley's death comes from the family Bible. The place, Bond County, Illinois, is supported by:
                        • The biography of her son, John E. Hartley, which states that the family moved to Bond County from Dickson County in 1831; and that the family moved on to Polk County, Missouri, in 1837.
                        • Elizabeth (Walker) Hartley clearly died of childbirth since her last child, William Carroll Hartley was born on 23 October 1834, and she died on the same date.
                        • William Carroll Hartley was consistently enumerated in census with a birthplace of Illinois.
                        • Oral history among the Hartley descendants.
