• Notes

  Married: No record of Elijah's first marriage has been located. Although Dickson County marriage records begin in 1817, a tornado on 30 May 1830 decimated the county seat of Charlotte, severely damaging the courthouse, and resulting in record loss. Elijah's first child,"J. M." (John M.), was born on 18 September 1824 Elijah is probably one of the two males found in the 1820 census household of Elizabeth Walker In January 1824 Elijah Walker and wife, the "former Matilda King" appointed William Shelby as their representative in legal actions in Sullivan County, where Matilda's father died about 1814. . The marriage probably occurred about 1823 in Dickson County.
