• Notes

  Dear Janis, A friend found your Home page on line and passed it on to me. She knew I was seeking information on Elijah Walker. I feel sure this is the same family that we are related to. I have lots more information on the families. It was our understanding that Elijah came from Scotland and he went into Tennessee (Dickson Co, Maury, etc). Names and dates for Elijah Jr's children were recorded in the old Gaelic language family Bible which Archie Walker bought at a sale of one of his relatives. The Bible was passed down through Oce Ola Walker to his daughter, Mary Esther Walker Baily who still has it. Esther is my Aunt. [Address label taped to the paper]: Mary E. Bailey, 2742 Simpson Hwy 469, Florence, MS 39073, Phone 1-601-847-3354. I am sure she would like to hear from you and so would I. Sincerely, Virginia Dare Walker Sawyer [also attached was a hand-drawn lineage chart, beginning with Elijah (Sr) and Mary "Piney" McGill]
