  • Notes 
    • Nothing further is known of Mary (Walker) Spence, her husband, or her three known children. A search of the Macoupin County probate index on FamilySearch.org, Probate Index A, 1835-1880 does not reveal a record for the death of John Spence. John and Mary (Walker) Spence have not been located in the 1880 census, either in or out of Illinois. No Illinois marriage has been located for a "Mrs. Mary Spence," nor for a Mary Spence that seems likely by place or time (Illinois Online Record Index only). Searches in the 1880 census for John F. Walker born about 1859 and Charles W. Walker born abt 1862 have also been unsuccessful. A search of the Illinois death index on FamilySearch.org has failed to locate the death of anyone by the name of Spence with parents John and Mary.
    • Henry "Allhousen," residing with John Spence and Mary (Walker) Spence in the 1860 Macoupin County census, was the son of Susan M. Walker and her first husband Charles N. Ohlhousen. Susan was a known daughter of Samuel A. Walker, who granted permission for her marriage to Ohlhousen as she was underage.

      This is a link between Mary Walker, known daughter of John McLean Walker and Susan Walker, known daughter of Samuel A. Walker. Another child of Susan Walker and Charles Ohlhousen, Missouri "Allhousing," married Anthony Green Walker, a known son of Phillip V. Walker and Frances Best.

      This links John McLean Walker (believed to be the son of Jacob Walker and Agnes McLean), with Susan Walker (known daughter of Samuel A. Walker), and with the Phillip V. Walker family--Phillip V. descendants sort into our Group 2 DNA group, and is probably the son of Samuel A. or Jacob Walker.
    • A Mrs. Angeline Spence married Peter Williams in Adams County and they are enumerated in 1880 Adams County with step-sons John and Charles. John and Charles are of the right age to be the sons of Mary (Walker) Spence and Angeline Williams was Mrs. Angeline Spence when she was married and her birth year was the same as that of Mary (Walker) Spence.

      However, subsequent research indicates that these are coincidences and this family is not the second family of Mary (Walker) Spence.
