      [This family was enumerated separately but shared a dwelling with two other families, that of A. M. Hammond and wife Eliza, and that of J. C. Hammond and wife Sarah.

      It appears that after James Frank Walker died in 1879, his new wife left the home with her child (John R.). Frank's older children, including 8-year-old Mary F. were left with other relatives--or perhaps they left their step-mother for reasons of their own. The youngest, Mary F., is about the right age that her mother Mary F. Harmon/Herman (Frank's first wife) could have died in childbirth.]
