RESEARCH |
Could this John S. Walker be related to the John S. Walker who shares our mutation in Group 2 of the Walker DNA study? His dates don't match up, nor do those of his son John, but the connection could be elsewhere.
There is an Indiana connection, the precise name, and his proximity to known Group 2 Walkers in 1860 Macoupin County. |
