Notes

Probably died in Clarksville, Montgomery County, Tennessee, since her older sister Narcissa Josephine died there on 23 May 1865. 

Probably died in Edwardsville, Madison County, Illinois, where she lived at the time of death. 

Probably died in Marshall County, Kansas, where she had lived for many years and was buried. 

Probably divorced, given the history of the family and the fact that Archie later remarried. 

Probably in Cherokee County, Kansas. 

Probably in Corpus Christi, where his obit appeared in 1871 in the Corpus Christie Caller, 5 May 1971, p. 6D. 

Probably in Dickson County.

Data on birth date varies.

1900 census: September 1886
1910 census: age 22, calculates to 1888
1920 census: age 28, calculates to 1892
1930 census: age 43, calculates to 1887
1940 census: age 52, calculates to 1888
SSDI gives birthdate as 16 Sept 1897

The 1900 census seems the most likely to be close to right. 

Probably in Gonzales County, Texas

Family group sheet of Josephine H. Jones, descendant, lists his death as 13 July 1868, rather than 18 July. Also states that he died in Gonzales Co TX. 

Probably in Izard County were she is buried. 

Probably in Izard County where he is buried. 

Probably in Kansas. he 1900 census states they have been married for 18 years and have 2 children. However, that is clearly not true, as in 1885 she was still living with first husband Frank Lane. Harry, who is implied to be a son of J. N. Vickers in 1900, is clearly a son of Frank Lane.

It is not clear who Neva Foster's father was. 

Probably in Marshall County, Mississippi. 

Probably in Spokane County, Washington. 

Probably married in Alabama. 

Probably married in Kansas, possibly Washington County. 

Probably married in New Mexico. 

Probably married in Polk or Cedar County, Missouri. 

Probably named for Mary's mother, Fannie (Best) Walker. 

Probably Navarro County. 

Probably prior to 1927, when Monty remarried, though possibly deserted and divorced. Their child Velda remained with the father, rendering it more likely that Myrtle died. 

Probably St. Clair County, Illinois 

pulmonary hemorrhage  

Ralph (as he was known) was cremated and his ashes were scattered off the coast of Marin County. 

Ralph was never married. 

Rayna (Lenning) Moore, her daughter, names her as "Loura Edna Eslick." 

Reasons for believing that this John Walker is John L. Walker who married Elizabeth Scroggins.

• John L. Walker and Elizabeth Scroggins were married on 15 August 1830. The couple in this census have no children, are young, were probably recently married. No other Madison Co marriage record for a John Walker around this time
  
• This John Walker is living two households away from "Pryor Scroggins"
  
• John L. Walker and his wife Elizabeth were close in age, generally reflecting the same age in census. However, his birthday may have been earlier in the year--he had turned 20 and she had not--accounting for the age discrepancy
  

 

Recorded in 1900 census as "Evert M." 

Records of the Stockton Rural Cemetery indicate that William K. Walker bought a 12-person plot at the time of his wife Bridget's death. Among seven other Walker burials in the plot is Calvin W. Walker, age 3, died 20 October 1888, calculating roughly to a birth year of 1885.

This would make him the first child of William K. and his second wife Mary Dolan. Cleveland would have been almost a year and a half old at the time of this older sibling's death.

While it is conceivable that Calvin was the son of Bridget Dolan, he would have to have been more than three even if his birthday was later than October, since Bridget died in April 1884. It is unlikely.

It is, however, possible that William K. married Mary Dolan when she became pregnant. 

Requested obit from Abraham Lincoln Library, 9 April 2014. Could have appeared in _The Litchfield News-Herald_. 

Research avenue:

In searching for Louisa Woollums I ran onto a Fieldon/Fielding/Field Woolums who had a son Elijah Walker Woollums. His wife's name was Matilda J. Walker. Both born in Ohio of Elijah Walker and Magdelen Dial/Diehl.

Interesting research path?

RESEARCH NOTES

William Johnson lived next to a Samuel King in 1820, lived near two other King families, and witnessed a Samuel King-George H. Walker deed in 1824.

William Johnson appears in the 1820 census, with one daughter under 10. He and his apparent wife are 16-26, indicating birth between 1794-1804, probably toward the earliest end of that spectrum.

A William Johnson married Eliza Nichols King in 1840 Dickson Co. It was her second marriage, having first married Phillip May, the son of William May and Hannah Jarman. It is not clear which William Johnson this is.



 

Researcher Wilda (Phipps) Beasley had an opportunity in the 1970's or 1980's to interview Ben Dryman, the younger half-brother of Claude Walker. Ben stated that Claude died in the mines in "Deadwood, North Dakota" (probably actually Deadwood, South Dakota). Wilda Beasley was a descendant of Helton Rutherford Walker through his daughter Martha Jane "Mattie" (Walker) Phipps.

No date has been associated with this event. However, Claude Walker appeared in the 1900 census in the home of his Walker grandparents.

In 1900 his mother Cynthia Dryman was enumerated as the mother of 9 children, 8 living. In 1910 she was enumerated as the mother of 10 children, 7 living. There are discrepancies here. The total numbers of children in each case are as we would expect: 9 by 1900 and (with the additional birth of Benjamin in 1901) 10 in 1910.

But which child was already dead by 1900? All nine known children were accounted for. If she had, as is likely, lost a child prior to 1900, then she was the mother of 10 children in 1900.

If, as stated in 1910, she was mother of 10 children and only 7 were living, these were the living: Henderson, John R., Nola, Thomas, Goldie, Frank, and Benjamin. Not located in 1910 are Mary, Claude, and Annie. Did Mary, Claude, and Annie all die between 1900 and 1910? Annie would have been just 12, it is likely that she would be found in her family home, if living. Mary could have married and Claude might not yet have died.

However, the most likely conclusion is that all three of these died between 1900-1910.

A Jacob Waller appears in Conway AR, 1840 or 1850.
--------
Also a possibility:
A Nancy "Wallir" enumerated in 1860 Scott County, Missouri; age 63, born in South Carolina, daughter Laura E. "Wallir." No apparent husband. No real estate value. Personal $40.

Update--cross out this possibility. An internet family tree shows that a Nancy Emmeline Caldwell married Thomas Overton Waller and had daughter Laura E. Waller.

Robert's WWI draft registration lists "Mrs. Edna Walker" as his nearest relative. This is probably his wife. 

Rosa, Rosamund 

Sadie's cause of death was "chronic nephritis," or inflammation of the kidneys. A contributing factor was "arthritis deformans" of 25 years duration--or since she was 17. Arthritis deformans is defined as "a chronic arthritis marked by deformation of affected joints. [Merriam Webster] or Rheumatoid Arthritis [Random House].

Conflict:
Information from Stockton Rural cemetery was that Sadie was buried on 20 January 1915 in the William K. Walker burial plot. However, her California death certificate clearly states that her death was on 3 December 1913 and that she was buried at "Hospital cemetery." This suggests that her husband may have moved her at the later date to his father's burial plot.

It should be noted that information from Stockton Rural Cemetery is, by policy, given only orally and no documents are provided. 

Sadie's death certificate indicated that she had been residing at her place of death (State Hospital) for 2 years and 11 months. 

Said to be buried in a small cemetery on the "Elmer Zachry farm." 

Salina (Walker) Wooters could not be located in the 1900 census. Nothing further is known of Salina (Walker) Wooters. 

Samuel Allen Walker's daughter's bio (see his entries for sourcing and full text) indicate his birth in Amherst County, Virginia. A search of the FHL's two index volumes for Amherst marriages did not discover a Walker male married to an Elizabeth:

• Amherst County, Virginia marriages 1763-1800, 975.5496 V2am
  Amherst County, Virginia, marriage bonds 1753-1853, 975.5496 V2sw
  
  Both volumes contained only these marriages:
  • Joel Walker to Mary Penn (1775)
    
  • Robert Walker to Nancy Powell (1792)
    
  
  
  The 1775 marriage is early enough for the birth of earliest-known child Archalaus in 1785, and could have been a first marriage for Progenitor?
  
   

Samuel never married. No record of a marriage for him has been found. Additionally, the 1904 census continues to characterize him as single rather than widowed, divorced, or married. 

Samuel probably died between 1860 and 1870, as he does not appear in the 1870 enumeration with his family, and he would have been only 11. 

Samuel Swank's 1889 Otoe County, Nebraska, biography offers a marriage date of 1847, but their recorded marriage date is actually 1850. 

Samuel Walker's stated age, "over 45," in the 1820 enumeration is in conflict with other data. It may have been entered in error, but it should be noted as an anomoly that might indicate this is a different Samuel Walker. Additionally, he is usually named as "Samuel A. Walker." 

Samuel's funeral took place at his home on 27th Avenue in Lincoln, Nebraska. 

Sarah appears in the 1850 census with her husband, but does not appear in the 1860 or 1870 census. In 1880 Jackson is listed as a widower. It is likely that Sarah died between 1850 and 1860.
