General Notes: Husband - Edwin Allen Wyman

from the notes of John Howard Wyman - wyman.org:
He is a clergyman of Malden,Mass.; and the author of Acquaintance with
God, or Salvation and Character.
Rev. Edwin A. Wyman, D.D., was a settled pastor in New York. He was
afterward a Professor in Louisiana College. He was the author of a book,
entitled "Acquaintance with God," a work highly commended by Rev. Dr.
Neale, of Boston. Dr. Wyman resided, the last years of his life, at
Leominster, Mass., and his interest in the family history led him to
collect much of the matter relating to the descendants of Daniel
Bicknell, of Lunenberg, Mass.

General Notes: Wife - Agnes Walker



Charlou Dolan:
The primary researcher for the descendents of Thomas Harmon & Agnes Walker was Babe (Mrs. Clyde) Fowler, Roanoke, Virginia, who about 1986 sent me copies of her Harmon research.
Agnes "Nancy" Walker married Thomas Harmon, supposedly in 1774 in Botetourt Co., Virginia, although no record of the marriage has been found. Thomas was supposedly born in Augusta Co., Virginia, in 1750 and died 1814 [?] in Kanawha Co., Virginia [now West Virginia]. According to the DAR, Thomas enlisted in the militia in Augusta Co., Virginia, during the Revolutionary War. Later he lived in Greenbrier Co., Monroe Co., and Kanawha Co., Virginia. In general, we have had a lot of trouble finding the confirmation of what "everyone has always known" in respect to Thomas Harmon and Nancy (Walker) Harmon, and much more work must be done to firm up this line.
William Walker does not name a daughter Nancy in his will of 1810, but he does name a daughter Agnes. Based on other known instances, Nancy was originally a nickname for Agnes. The probability is that William Walker named all of his living children in his will, as well as the spouses of his deceased children. Since it is known that Thomas Harmon married a Nancy Walker, daughter of William Walker, and since Thomas Harmon is mentioned in the will of his father-in-law, William Walker, it is reasonable to assume that Agnes and Nancy are one and the same person. This is also logical since Thomas and Nancy named a daughter Agnes (nicknamed "Aggie"), but did not name a daughter Nancy, which would have been the customary thing to do if the mother's given name were actually Nancy.

PRESERVED PURITAN
RICHARD WARREN
ORIGIN: London
MIGRATION: 1620 on Mayflower
FIRST RESIDENCE: Plymouth
ESTATE: In the 1623 Plymouth division of land Richard Warren received an uncertain number of acres (perhaps two) as a passenger on the Mayflower, and five acres as a passenger on the Anne (presumably for his wife and children) [PCR 12:4-6]. In the 1627 Plymouth division of cattle Richard Warren, his wife Elizabeth Warren, Nathaniel Warren, Joseph Warren, Mary Warren, Anna Warren, Sarah Warren, Elizabeth Warren and Abigail Warren were the first nine persons in the ninth company [PCR 12:12]. He was one of the purchasers [PCR 2:177].
   In the 25 March 1633 Plymouth tax list Widow Warren was assessed 12s., and in the list of 27 March 1634, 9s. [PCR 1:10, 27].
   On 1 July 1633 "Mrs. Warren and Robt. Bartlet" were allowed to mow where they did the previous year, and again 14 March 1635/6 [PCR 1:15, 41].
   On 28 October 1633, a grant of Richard Warren's landon which he was required to erect a dwelling, returned to the court "for want of building" and it was regranted to Mr. Ralph Fogg, provided he pay Widow Warren sufficiently for her fence remaining there [PCR 1:18].
   On 7 March 1636/7"it is agreed upon, by the consent of the whole Court, that Elizabeth Warren, widow, the relict of Mr. Richard Warren, deceased, shall be entered, and stand,and be purchaser instead of her said husband, as well because that (he dying before he had performed the said bargain) the said Elizabeth performed the same after his decease, as also for the establishing of the lots of lands given formerly by her unto her sons-in-law Richard Church, Robert Bartlett and Thomas Little, in marriage with their wives, her daughters" [PCR 1:54, 2:177].
   On 5 May 1640 "Richard Church, Rob[er]te Bartlett, Thomas Little, & Mrs. Elizabeth Warren are granted enlargements at the heads of their lots to the foot of the Pyne Hills, leaving a way betwixt them and the Pyne Hills, for cattle and carts topass" [PCR 1:152].
   On 11 June 1653, as the result of a disagreement between Mrs. Elizabeth Warren and her son, Nathaniel, and a petition offered in courtby Mrs. Jane Collier on behalf of her grandchild, Sarah, wife of Nathaniel Warren, the court chose four indifferent men to settle the matter of access to lands [MD 2:64, citing PCLR 2:73].
   On 4 March 1673/4 Mary Bartlett, wife of Robert Bartlett, came into this court and owned "that she hath received full satisfaction for whatsoever she might claim as due from the estate of Mistris Elizabeth Warren, deceased, and John Cooke, in the behalf of all her sisters, testified the same before the court; and the court doth hereby settle the remainder of the said estate on Joseph Warren" [PCR 5:139-40].
BIRTH: By about 1578 basedon estimated date of marriage.
DEATH: Plymouth 1628. ("This year died Mr. Richard Warren, who hath been mentioned before in this book, and was an useful instrument; and during his life bore a deep share in the difficulties and troublesof the first settlement of the plantation of New-Plymouth" [Morton 85].
MARRIAGE: By about 1609 Elizabeth _____; she died at Plymouth on 2 October 1673, aged about 90 (probably an exaggeration) [PCR 8:35]. (Elizabeth's maiden name has been given as "March" in many sources, without documentation).
CHILDREN:
   i   MARY, b. say 1609; m. say 1629 ROBERT BARTLETT (date based on estimated age of children at their marriages).
   ii   ANN, b. say 1613; m. Plymouth 19 April 1633 THOMAS LITTLE [PCR 1:13].
   iii   SARAH, b. say 1614; m. Plymouth 28 March 1634 John Cooke Junior [PCR 1:29], son of FRANCIS COOKE.
   iv   ELIZABETH, b. say 1615; m. by 1635/6 RICHARD CHURCH (he shared mowing land with Mrs. Warren 14 March 1635/6 [PCR 1:41]).

Signed: James Wilson
Witness: Michael C. Steves Frances Flashart Michael Fleager
Signature of Thomas Wilson also appears. (This document does not show Elizabeth as the wife of James Wilson when he gave land to his son Josiah Wilson. According to one of the old letter received by Mrs. Nettie Holmes, Josiah had a step-mother. So it may be that James Wilson of Botetourt County, Va. was the father of Josiah, but Elizabeth, who was James wife in the latter 1790's was not the mother of Josiah Wilson.)

Botetourt County, Virginia, Deed Book 6 page 517: This indenture made this 11th day of September in the year of our Lord 1798 between James Wilson and Elizabeth his wife of Botetourt County and State of Virginia of the one part and their son Thomas Wilson of said County and State of Virginia on the other part witnesseth that for and in consideration of the natural love and affection the said James and Elizabeth his wife bears to the said Thomas their son and for the further consideration of one dollar to them in hand paid current money of said State by the said Thomas the receipt whereof they do hereby acknowledge and by the represent acknowledge hath given granted and sold and by these present doth give grant alein and confirm unto the said Thomas Wilson a certain tract or parcel of land containing 75 acres be the same more or less as is contained in the boundaries hereafter written said tract is part of a tract of 246 acres granted to James Patton by a patent bearing date the 3rd day of Nov MDCCL, and by said Patton conveyed to Hance Maurie by a deed admitted to record at Augusta March Court 1754 and conveyed by said Maurie to said James Wilson by a deed bearing date 20 June 1769.
Signed: James Wilson Elizabeth Wilson
At Botetourt September Court 1798. This deed of gift was exhibited in court and acknowledged by James Wilson and Elizabeth his wife, she having been first privately examined as the law directs and thereupon ordered to be recorded. (This passage identifies the land and the original patent, stating that it was first patented by James Patton. He is part of our family.

Adair Co., Kentucky, Deed Book A, page 486: This indenture made this 3rd day of March 1807 between Josiah Wilson and Margaret his wife of the County of Adair and state of Kentucky of the one part and James Wilson of the county of Betotourt, state of Virginia of the other part that for and in consideration of the sum of 20 pounds good and lawful money of Kentucky to him paid the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged doth grant bargain and sell and by these present hath both granted, bargained, and sold unto the said James Wilson a certain tract or parcel of land containing one hundred acres, the said tract being part of a tract of 246 acres deeded in the name of James Wilson deceased and by a deed of gift unto the said Josiah Wilson admitted to record date 25th day of September 1797, lying and being in the county of Botetourt and state of Virginia on Craig's Creek, a branch of James River. (Description) To have and to hold the said tract or parcel of land with all parts and premises mentioned or intended to be mentioned unto the said James Wilson, his heirs or assigns forever. Signed: Josiah Wilson Witness: Thomas Crow Thomas Wilson

Adair Co., Kentucky, Deed Book A, page ?: This indenture made this 3rd day of March in the year of our Lord 1807 between Thomas Wilson and Esther his wife of Adair County and State of Kentucky of the one part and James Wilson of Botetourt County and State of Virginia of the other part, that for and in consideration of the sum of one hundred pounds good and lawful money of Kentucky in hand paid the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged doth grant, bargain, and sell and by these present hath granted, bargained and sold unto the said James Wilson a certain tract and parcel of land containing 75 acres be there more or less as is contained in the boundaries hereafter written. Said tract is part of a tract of 246 acres granted James Wilson now deceased by patent bearing date the 4th day of November 1750 and by said patent conveyed to Hance Maurie by a deed admitted to record at Augusta March Court 1754 and conveyed by said Maurice to James Wilson By a deed.
Signed: James Wilson
Witness: Thomas Crow Josiah Wilson

[Charlou Dolan: Thus we see that Josiah Wilson had wife Margaret, and he was a brother of Thomas Wilson who had wife Esther. Josiah and Thomas received land from their father James Wilson, now deceased when these deeds were made. This land was located on Craig's Creek, in Botetourt County, Virginia. Josiah and Thomas, by these deeds, are selling the land to one James Wilson of Botetourt Co.,Virginia, either their brother or their nephew. From these deeds, we know that James Wilson was in Old Augusta (now Botetourt) County, Virginia, as early as 1754 when he received the land by deed from Hance Maurie.]


Notes: Marriage

The marriage bond is dated 28 Oct 1791 and is signed by Thomas Wilson and Will'm Douthas. William Walker, father, gives his consent, and John and James Walker witness his consent.

LAND & COURT RECORDS

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 21 Oct 1833, George Walker of Monroe Co., Virginia, bought land in Madison Co., Indiana, from Franklin Neele & Sabina his wife, also of Monroe Co., Virginia. The land purchased was the East 1/2 of the Northwest 1/4 of Section 19, Township 18 North, Range 7 East, and was about 80 acres.

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: George Walker bought some part of the Northwest 1/4 of Section 29, Township 18 North, Range 7 East, and part of section 29 and section 20, altogether containing about 82 acres, from Manley Richards and Catharine his wife of Madison Co., Indiana, on 9 Dec 1833.

George left a will in Madison Co., Indiana, which is referred to in a deed (see below). Unfortunately, the courthouse in Madison Co. burned twice, first about 1840, and later about 1880. There are no wills or probate or estate records before 1880. Luckily, however, the land records were in a courthouse annex rather than in the main courthouse and so did the deeds did not burn. The census records indicate the possibility that George had more than just the two daughters who have been identified, which children might have been named in the lost will.

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 21 Feb 1837, Theodore S. Walker, Executor of the Estate of George Walker, decd., late of Madison Co., Indiana, sold to James Gray of the same place the East 1/2 of the Northwest 1/4 of Section 19 (the land purchased in 1833 from Franklin Neele), "being thereof seized aforesaid, the said George Walker on the 18th day of August, 1835, made his Last Will...in which he ordered & directed his Executor to sell and convey the said tract of land...and he died without altering the said will in any way."

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 18 Oct 1837 Clarinda Walker of Madison Co., Indiana, sold a tract of land to John W. Walker of the same county. The land is part of the Northwest 1/4 of Section 28, Township 18 North, and also the adjoining piece in Section 29 and Section 20 in Township 18 (apparently the land purchased in 1833 from Manley Richards & wife Catherine).

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 3 Jun 1838 Clarinda Walker made a loan of $200 to Theodore S. Walker and Malinda his wife, with land as a security. The mortgage was paid in full on 4 Dec 1843.

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 31 Jul 1838 Clarinda Walker loaned $325 to Nathaniel M. Richmond of Madison Co., Indiana. This mortgage was to be paid in full by 1 Jan 1839, but it was not paid off until 28 Mar 1840. On the 1850 census, Clarinda is living alone next door to Nathaniel Richmond, clergyman.

HISTORY & BIOGRAPHY

Charlou Dolan:
George Walker married second Clorinda Woods. The date and place of their marriage has not been found, but a descendant of George Walker (Josephine Wilson) is the source for Clorinda's surname. In a biographical sketch of one of his descendants, his wife's surname is given as Adams, and it also says that George was married twice, which fits in with the information I have found so far.
George Walker moved to Monroe Co., Virginia [now West Virginia] and resided there until about 1833 when he and his wife Clorinda moved to Madison Co., Indiana, with several of their sons, possibly moving first to Tennessee.
George is buried in the Grovelawn Cemetery, Fall Creek Township, Madison Co., Indiana. He has the distinction, therefore, of being the only child of William Walker for whom a tombstone has been found.
The last record I have for Clorinda Walker is the 1850 census, where she is living alone in Madison Co., Indiana, in the same township as several of her sons. I have not found a death record for her, nor found where she is buried. It seems unlikely that she would have remarried after the age of 84, so she should be buried under the name Clorinda Walker.

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 3 Jun 1838 Clarinda Walker made a loan of $200 to Theodore S. Walker and Malinda his wife, with land as a security. The mortgage was paid in full on 4 Dec 1843.

Madison Co., Indiana, Deed Book ?, page ?: 31 Jul 1838 Clarinda Walker loaned $325 to Nathaniel M. Richmond of Madison Co., Indiana. This mortgage was to be paid in full by 1 Jan 1839, but it was not paid off until 28 Mar 1840. On the 1850 census, Clarinda is living alone next door to Nathaniel Richmond, clergyman.

HISTORY & BIOGRAPHY

Charlou Dolan:
George Walker married second Clorinda Woods. The date and place of their marriage has not been found, but a descendant of George Walker (Josephine Wilson) is the source for Clorinda's surname. In a biographical sketch of one of his descendants, his wife's surname is given as Adams, and it also says that George was married twice, which fits in with the information I have found so far.
George Walker moved to Monroe Co., Virginia [now West Virginia] and resided there until about 1833 when he and his wife Clorinda moved to Madison Co., Indiana, with several of their sons, possibly moving first to Tennessee.
George is buried in the Grovelawn Cemetery, Fall Creek Township, Madison Co., Indiana. He has the distinction, therefore, of being the only child of William Walker for whom a tombstone has been found.
The last record I have for Clorinda Walker is the 1850 census, where she is living alone in Madison Co., Indiana, in the same township as several of her sons. I have not found a death record for her, nor found where she is buried. It seems unlikely that she would have remarried after the age of 84, so she should be buried under the name Clorinda Walker.

"Summon Barclay Nutter and Susan his wife formerly Susan Walker the widow of Geo.

Deposition of Joseph Walker--he is the brother of George Walker deceased, brother of Henry (the defendant), brother of Robert, who should know more about the case. The case has to do with a bond owed John M. Bailey. Originally Joseph and George were each to pay half. Shortly before his death, George and Joseph decided to settle up. However, they couldn't remember all the facts relative to the use of two negros, and decided to wait and ask their brother Robert. Then George died, leaving things unsettled. A memorandum of the settlement was written, but then they decided they didn't have enough information, so even though the memorandum looks like a final settlement, it wasn't. George died in the month of March. A few years later, George's adm. Henry, Robert (whose word they had previously agreed to abide by), George's widow, and Joseph all met in the house of George's widow and settled things. The negroes in question had been the property of their aged mother, who died intestate. She had made known her wishes concerning the negroes previous to her death, however, and wanted one to go to Joseph alone and one to George alone. She told this wishes to Robert in particular, which wishes were not legally binding, but which were accepted by all the children out of respect to their mother.
This deposition was witnessed in Putnam Co., Virginia, 18 Dec 1849.

The deposition of Robert Walker contained the same information as above. His mother charged him with seeing her wishes were carried out. His signature was witnessed in Monroe Co., Virginia. The case was decided in favor of the defendant.

HENRY WALKER LETTERS

Charlou Dolan: I have copies of four letters written by Henry Walker to his brother-in-law, Archibald Woods, and one letter written to Henry Walker from his mother-in-law, Martha Woods. These letters are all in the Archibald Woods Manuscript Collection in the Manuscripts Dept., Swem Library, College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia, and are used here with their permission. Archibald Woods was the brother of Martha (Woods) Walker. At the time the first letter was written, Archibald was probably living in Ohio Co., Virginia [now West Virginia]. At the time of the later letters, Archibald was living in Ohio. [Dr. = Dear, not doctor]

"My Son March the 14 18001 [sic]
I have thought it proper upon a backlook on some things past here to remark Some particulars to you. it happened so that in the absence of my Son Robert his father dyed and left him in his will a large quantity of paper money if he Came in Such a time and if not we were to make the value of it in hard money he did not Come in the time mentioned therefore I took the paper money and Sent it for land warrents in my own name hoping to dispose of them as I pleasd. as I had a perfect knowledge how Roberts fifty pounds was made which Came in its room the paper money procured me a large quantity of Six hundred acre--warents-- which I put into my Sons hands when they went into the western Country after Some time had elapsed my Son Andrew Came home and brought me the plats of three Surveys of land which he Said was made from the location of three of my six hundred acre warrents which they made on middle island. he also said he had a message from his brother Robert who requested me to make an asignment on one of those Surveys to you on his account and he would replace it to me again with one as good--it being a bounty he promised his sister your wife. I made the asignment according to my sons directions but I have never yet received any return of land or acknowledgment of debt. as I never Chang'd a word with Robert upon the Subject and that there may be no mistake in the way I do here acknowledge the gift to be mine and not Robert woodses bounty but I would wish to put a more favourable Construction on it without injuring truth or marring true friendship -- my Son knew you had a more immediate Call for the land war' I had and that his message to me was verble and passive and that my asignment was permannent and Sure and I hope he has his bounty still in reserve for his sister and will give it to her rather than Stain his Candor with defrauding his mother of a Survey of land. and withholding his promised bounty from his sister. finely, I never had any lands in that Country by any claim of my own or any other mans, save the three surveys I mentioned above viz the one I asigned to you and the remaining two I asigned to my Son andrew to divide btwixt himself elijeh woods and Andrew W. walker by my derections you would do well if you Could Send word to andw. W. waker [sic] not to trade his land until he see it-- but let none of those changable things lead our minds astray. we live in the land of a bountiful governor who ___ our bread and water Sure to us every day and under his frowns the richest must be poor, --and whos Smiles the poorest must be rich -- I write ___ this by way of letter but by the bye I remain your loving mother whil I am

HENRY'S SIGNATURES

Charlou Dolan: When checking signatures of Henry Walker in Botetourt Co., Virginia, it appeared to J. Tracy Walker and me, that there were two different signatures (one on the marriage bond to marry Martha Woods which matched the one on Henry Walker's will, and a different one on the marriage bond for "my niece Polly Walker" to marry Mr. Givens), and therefore we thought there must have been two different Henry Walkers, with the one who signed the marriage bond for "my niece Polley Walker" being the unexplained one. As it turns out, the letters above are also signed with the two different signatures. When not just the signatures but also text of the marriage bond and the letters are compared, it is readily apparent that the handwriting is identical on all, leading us to the conclusion that there was one Henry Walker living in Botetourt Co., Virginia, during this time period, and that he simply made his capital H's in two different ways. The question then arises, who was his niece Polly Walker? Agness Woods of Montgomery Co., Virginia, testifies that "Polly Walker now living with Henry Walker in Botetourt County Creags Creek is twinty one years of Age... this 7th day of June 1799." There is a James Walker, wife Margaret (Woods) Walker, who names a daughter Polly Givens in his will. We know for sure (from deeds) that the James Walker who was the brother of Henry Walker was married to Jane, not Margaret.
The simple explanation (which now seems obvious, but which eluded us for years) is that Polly was Henry's niece because she was the daughter of his wife's sister, i.e. Martha (Woods) Walker and Margaret (Woods) Walker are sisters. There is indeed a Margaret Woods baptized in Augusta Co., Virginia, daughter of Andrew Woods, and Andrew Woods signed as surety on the marriage bond for Margaret Woods to marry James Walker. Martha (Woods) Walker is known to be a daughter of Andrew Woods, because she is named as such in his will. An uncertainty has arisen because Margaret is not named in Andrew Woods's will as being his daughter. There are, however, many proven instances of a father leaving one or more of his children out of his will, the most common reason for it being that the child in question has already received his or her portion, often at the time they married, especially in the case of daughters. Furthermore, James Walker is known to have married a second time, and it is quite possible that Andrew Woods did not name his daughter Margaret in his will, because she died before he did. This may also be the explanation of why Polly Walker is living with her uncle, instead of with her parents.

- - - - - - - - - -
page 419: Andrew Woods, of Albemarle County, purchased western land first on the North Fork of Roanoke (1765) and later (1767) on Looney's Mill Creek where he lived until 1781. His will was probated on August 9, 1781, by Robert Harris, Jr., Andrew Clark, Wm. Ward and Mathew Wilson. The executors were his wife, Martha, and sons, Andrew and James. Andrew Woods was a son of Michael Woods, Sr., who came from Pennsylvania to Virginia in 1734. Martha Woods was Martha Poage, daughter of Robert Poage, of Augusta County. Their children were James, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Robert, Andrew, Archibald, Mary and Martha. James Woods married Nancy Rayburn and lived on the land on North Fork of Roanoke. Elizabeth Woods married David Cloyd, Jr., son of David Cloyd, of Buffalo Creek of Roanoke, and lived on the Cloyd land on Cedar Creek near Natural Bridge. This David Cloyd came to be known as David Cloyd, Sr., of Rockbridge County, and had a son, David, Jr., of the same place. Their graves in the High Bridge Church cemetery are plainly marked. Rebecca Woods married Isaac Kelly and lived in Ohio. Robert Woods married Lovely Caldwell and Elizabeth Goff and lived in what is now West Virginia. Mary Woods married James Poage and lived in Ohio. Martha Woods married Henry Walker and lived in Botetourt County.

A little later (1783) a new way was marked out from the place formerly Balliner's on Barber's Creek to the Sweet Springs. This was done by Wm. Hamilton, John Lewis, James Moss and John Galloway, the latter two being further interested in a bridle way being opened by Capt.

page 10: They [Henry Walker and Martha Woods, his wife] resided on the south side of Craig's Creek, opposite the mouth of Barber's Creek. Martha lost her husband in 1803. She continued to live on Craig's Creek until her family was grown, when she made her home with her youngest son, George Walker, who resided on John's Creek about 4 miles west of New Castle, Virginia. There she died on Dec. 14, 1834, and was buried in the family cemetery on the farm of John Walker a mile or two from her old home on the creek. Her funeral was notable on account of an exceedingly deep snow which covered the ground.

In the Virginia State Library is a list of the Church Members in the Fincastle Congregation (Presbyterian Church), dated 1803. It includes the name of Henry Walker as an Elder, with "dec'd" after his name. It also includes the name Martha Walker, and under the list of new applicants dated 20 Mar 1803 is the name Wm. Walker.

HISTORY & BIOGRAPHY

James Walker and Margaret Bailey were both born in Virginia of Scotch-Irish descent. They moved to Adair Co., Kentucky, in 1818. James died there in 1822 when William Sutherland Bailey Walker was 6 years of age. In 1834 Margaret moved with her four children to McDonough Co., Illinois.

Following are two letters James wrote to his uncle, Archibald Woods, the second of which is undated:

"Dear Sir
Cousin Thomas's sudden departure prevents my doing any thing more than acknowledge the rec.t of yours by him I attended court agreeable to your request but Loves [?] attained a postponement of your suit untill the next term. I attended to the pleadings of council on both sides I thought your council done their duty well & must confess I was much surprised when the judge gave his decision in favor of postponement Love's pleas was the absence of his old council vis.

Deposition of Joseph Walker--he is the brother of George Walker deceased, brother of Henry (the defendant), brother of Robert, who should know more about the case. The case has to do with a bond owed John M. Bailey. Originally Joseph and George were each to pay half. Shortly before his death, George and Joseph decided to settle up. However, they couldn't remember all the facts relative to the use of two negros, and decided to wait and ask their brother Robert. Then George died, leaving things unsettled. A memorandum of the settlement was written, but then they decided they didn't have enough information, so even though the memorandum looks like a final settlement, it wasn't. George died in the month of March. A few years later, George's adm. Henry, Robert (whose word they had previously agreed to abide by), George's widow, and Joseph all met in the house of George's widow and settled things. The negroes in question had been the property of their aged mother, who died intestate. She had made known her wishes concerning the negroes previous to her death, however, and wanted one to go to Joseph alone and one to George alone. She told this wishes to Robert in particular, which wishes were not legally binding, but which were accepted by all the children out of respect to their mother.
This deposition was witnessed in Putnam Co., Virginia, 18 Dec 1849.

The deposition of Robert Walker contained the same information as above. His mother charged him with seeing her wishes were carried out. His signature was witnessed in Monroe Co., Virginia. The case was decided in favor of the defendant.

General Notes: Husband - § James Walker



Egle's Notes & Queries: James Walker was born in Scotland and went with his father to northern Ireland. He took part in the siege of Londonderry. He married, but his wife's name is unknown.

[Charlou Dolan: The information for the first two generations of this family (other than the deeds & will I have added for Henry Walker) comes from Egle's <i>Notes & Queries</i>. There is no source given for most of the information, so it may or may not be accurate. More than likely, most of it was assumed to be true with little or no evidence, and undoubtedly riddled with errors. I myself suspect that the so-called relationship in many cases was based solely on proximity, i.e. two Walkers are in the same area at the same time, ergo they must be brothers. It is convenient, however, to start with Egle's rendition of the family tree, and handle it as one would any other "family story," because such stories can sometimes provide clues. I will be doing my best to find verification for as much of it as possible. Until more documentation is found, however, the first two generations should NOT be accepted as accurate.]

Death Notes: Child - § Henry Walker

[Note: Although he lived in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania, his farm was located on the part of Lancaster Co. that after his death was split off to form Dauphin Co., Pennsylvania.]


General Notes: Child - § Henry Walker



[Charlou Dolan: Henry Walker was supposedly born in Ireland. He settled in Derry Twp., Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania (later Dauphin Co.). He received a warrant for land in Derry Township, Lancaster Co., in 1749. Pennsylvania land warrants are indexed under the county the land is presently in, since the indexing was done in the 20th century. Therefore, we need to look at the warrant index for Dauphin County, as the land is in that county today. A map of the land warrants shows Henry's land adjacent to that of John Walker, and only slightly separated from that of James Walker. The land of David Walker is at the southern edge of the township, while the land of the other three is at the northern edge. Due to the proximity of the lands of Henry, John, and James, it is entirely likely that they were brothers, as has so often been stated by various people, who, however, have always failed to cite a source for this "fact".]

PETITION OF JOHN & MARY WALKER

A petition was filed in Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania, by John Walker on 26 Mar 1768:
"Upon the Petition of John Walker & Mary his Wife which same Mary is eldest Daughter of Henry Walker late of Derry Township in the County of Lancaster Yeoman deceased setting forth that the said Henry Walker lately died intestate seized and possessed of a certain Messuage, Sawmill & Tract of Land thereto belonging situate in Derry Township aforesaid Containing five hundred and thirty Acres besides the Usual Allowance for Roads and High Ways leaving Issue five sons and Two daughters besides Mary the Petitioner and Agnes the Wife of the same Henry: that the Petitioners are willing and desirous to hold and enjoy the Messuage Saw Mill & Tract of Land aforesaid in Case the Sons of the said Henry refuse to Accept the same, etc...It is ordered by the court that the Sheriff of the county of Lancaster do forthwith summon a Jury to view the Messuage Saw Mill and Tract of Land...etc."
[Charlou Dolan: John Walker [son-in-law] and his wife Mary Walker [daughter of Henry] petitioned to be allowed to keep the entire tract, paying the other heirs their share, rather than splitting the land. The court ordered the sheriff to appoint a jury to view the land and make a decision and report back to the next court. Searches of later court records have failed to turn up any other mention of Henry Walker's land in Lancaster County Court records, so if the jury reported back to the court, their findings were not recorded.]

LANCASTER CO., PENNSYLVANIA, DEEDS

The only further land record concerning Henry Walker in Lancaster County, is the sale of 270 acres of land from James Walker to John Walker. The only description of the land given is that it was part of a farm formerly belonging to Henry Walker, deceased, & divided by James Campbell, Hew Hase, John Dickson & James Willson. The deed is dated 6 Nov 1767, recorded 12 Mar 1768, and the mortgage evidently paid off 9 Sep 1769. There is no further mention of this property in the deed books of Lancaster Co. The land is situated in the part of Lancaster Co. which in 1785 became Dauphin County, so the deeds of Dauphin County were checked with great success.

METES & BOUNDS

Charlou Dolan: Before I proceed with the first deed, it might be well to offer a brief explanation of how land was surveyed "by metes and bounds." Starting with an imaginary axis that runs north and south, directions are given as so many degrees east or west of north or south. For example, South 20 East, means go in a direction which is 20 degrees east of straight south. Sometimes just the abbreviations N, S, E, and W were used. N 36 W, for example, means go in a direction which is 36 degrees west of straight north.
The next thing to consider is distance. Surveyors used chains composed of 100 links, each chain being 66 feet long, therefore each link being .66 feet long, or slightly less than 8 inches [Note: Engineers used chains 100 feet long.] Surveyors also used rods (sometimes called perches or poles) which are 16.5 feet long. An acre is then the equivalent of 160 square rods.
Besides giving the length of a side, each time a corner was reached, some natural item was described (usually a tree or trees), such as three white oaks, two black hickorys, etc. Other people's land was used in the descriptions, which is particularly helpful to a genealogist, such as "corner to John Walker's land," or "on a line of Caldwell's tract." At the time these deeds were written, it was also a requirement that every three years neighbors would meet and walk their common property lines, re-marking any of the corner trees with slashes or other markings as needed.
The biggest problem in platting out a tract of land from the old land descriptions occurs when part of the boundry follows a creek for a certain number of chains or rods, in which case, unless one knows what the course of the river was at the time of the deed (and rivers do change their courses!), one has no idea of how to draw that particular side. Due to the fact that everyone wanted to own just the good bottom land, and not the areas that were too rocky or too steep to farm, the shapes of most of the tracts of land had more than four sides, fifteen to twenty sides being not at all unusual. Another problem is that often the creek used in the description is so small it cannot be found on modern maps, or the name has been changed. In fact, the names of creeks changed with remarkable rapidity in the early days. Fortunately, by reading the description of the directions in degrees east and west of north/ south, and the distances involved, one can usually tell if two deeds concern the same piece of property. Even here, however, if only part of the tract is being sold, there can be problems.
The "modern" surveying system of Township-Section-Range was inaugurated at a later date, for states farther west, such as Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, etc., and it makes finding the location of tracts of land much easier since it does not depend on natural objects such as trees and creeks, and therefore it is also quite easy to tell if two deeds are for the same piece of land.

SALE OF HENRY'S LAND BY SON JOHN

As for the following deed dated 7 Mar 1771, note that the attached acknowledgements by the other heirs, giving up their rights in the land to John, were signed in 1767 and 1768.

Dauphin County Book A-1, pages 228-230 [legalese omitted and paragraphing added]:

[signed] John Walker and Mary Walker.
witnesses: James Willson, Bartman Galbreath.

Charlou Dolan:
The above deed and all of the releases were recorded in Dauphin Co., Pennsylvania, 9 Jan 1786, almost 20 years after they were signed. I have not yet found out if the original receipts survive, perhaps in an estate file for John Walker or for someone else (about the only place such papers have a chance of surviving).
It is also interesting to note, re the sale witness Felix Landis, that a John Landis, weaver, lived in Lancaster Co. about this time, and designed so many beautiful patterns for weaving coverlets, that he is still famous today, at least among hand weavers.

I am a descendant of James and Isabella Martin Head, parents of Elizabeth Margaret Head who married William Sutherland Bailey Walker and Isabella Ursala Head who married Henry McKay Walker. I have had a problem with the children of James and Isabella for a long time. I had 2 daughters named Julia Ann Head for them, and that is not possible. The first, born abt. 1815, married Phillip T. Corder and moved to Andrew Cty., MO. The 2nd Julia Ann Head married James Washington Walker. I could not believe that both Julias were daughters of James and Isabella Head, but I could not find out which one was the correct daughter. The Head book by Watts says the first Julia who married Corder is the correct one as their daughter, so I was intent on finding out who the second Julia's parents were. I decided to look at the 1840 census records for McDonough Cty., IL, where these families resided, for clues. Of the 4 families listed, one was James and Isabella, one was Horace Smith Head, and one was George Head. I looked though my files to see who this particular George Head was and determined that it was George, the son of Bigger John Head and his wife Jane Smith. George Head had married Mary Head, another daughter, actually the firstborn child, of James and Isabella. The 1840 census lists Geroge and Mary Head as having 4 males and either 3 or 4 females. I wondered if Julia could be his daughter. I looked to see what Julia and James Walker named their children for any name patterns. Julia Head Walker and her husband James Walker named their first 2 children George and Mary. How can you look at something for so long and not see it. I can bet that Julia is their daughter. She fits perfectly in this family. It is not a "sure thing", but it's better than putting Julia Ann Head Walker as the daughter of James and Isabella. Perhaps some of you have more proof on this matter. Regards, Judy

BIRTH, MARRIAGE, & DEATH RECORDS

According to a tombstone at Tull Cemetery in Pontoosuc, Hancock Co., Illinois, Joseph W. Walker was born 5-3-1765 and died 11/28/1815. His father was John Walker. They are listed on a 4 sided stone along with Henry Walker (Joseph W.’s son) and Margaret Agnew (states ‘wife of Henry’).
The stone is engraved: John Walker / Born / in Ireland 1706 / Came to America 1732 / Killed by Indians 1778 / Age 72 Years
It would follow that this is a family stone with 3 generations listed. It’s possible that they are not actually buried there but simply remembered. Brant Agnew and Catherine Agnew stones are next to them. Many of Henry Walker’s children are buried in the same cemetery

HISTORY & BIOGRAPHY

Annals of Buffalo Valley, Pennsylvania, 1755-1855 (John Blair)
page 210-211:
The attack on John Lee's (now Winfield) was made in August. A letter directed to Colonel Magaw, at Carlisle, found among his papers, from Colonel Butler, dated 25th August, says, a party of Indians, supposed to be sixty or seventy in number, killed Mr. Lee and family, a few miles above Sunbury. Letters of administration were issued to Captain John Lowdon and Thomas Grant on the 31st of August. Lee was assessor in April of this year.
I copy from Mcginness his narration of the occurrence, as I can find no contemporaneous account of it. Meginness, however, confounds Major John Lee with Sergeant Lee, killed at Fort Rice, on the 24th of October, and relates an incident occurring at Sergeant Lee's funeral as happening at Major Lee's funeral:
"It was a summer evening, and his family were at supper. A young woman named Katy Stoner escaped up stairs, and concealed herself behind the chimney. Lee was tomahawked and scalped, and a man named John Walker shared the same fate. A Mrs. Boatman and daughter were also killed. Mrs. Lee, with a small child and a boy named Thomas, were led away captives.
pages 212-213:
The Sequel to John Walker's murder, Mr. Meginness relates, as follows: "In the year 1790 his sons Benjamin, Joseph, and Henry Walker were living on a farm not far from the mouth of Pine creek, a few miles above Jersey Shore, when two Indiana, one a youth and the other a middle-aged, well-proportioned man, came into the neighborhood. At Stephenson's tavern, near the mouth of the creek, some people, and among them the Walkers, had gathered. The Indians got drunk, and performed many antics; and the old Indian, putting on the most horrid grimaces, and twisting his face into all sorts of shapes, said, 'this is the way old Walker looked when I killed and scalped him.' That evening the brothers persuaded one Samuel Doyle to accompany them, and murdered the Indians, placing their bodies in the creek where Phelps' mill stands. The bodies were washed out by a freshet, and suspicion pointed to the Walkers, who fled the country."
The county records show that letters upon the estate of John Walker were granted to his widow, Jane, and eldest son, Benjamin, in August 1782, and the rest of his family consisted of William, who died before 1790, (leaving a son, John) Henry, Joseph, John, Samuel, and Sarah, married to William Morrison.

August 19, 1790: Description of the Indian Murderers:
Benjamin Walker, about 28 years of age, about five feet nine inches high, straight and well made, full face, a little freckled, large Eyes, dark sandy hair, wears it tied, fond of Company and strong liquor, very talkative, and very apt to mock the Germans speaking broken English, is left handed, deals in Lands and brags much of his property, followed farming and Boating.
Henry Walker, about 25 years of age, five feet six Inches high, straight made, thin visaged, pockmarked and freckled, squints a little with both Eyes, long, dark, sandy hair, brought up to boating and Farming.
Joseph Walker, about 23 years of age, five feet ten inches high, slim made and very straight, full faced and much freckled, long dark sandy hair, very proud, a blacksmith by Trade but don't follow it, fond of his gun, Civil in Company, was out with the Commissioners as a hunter and Chain bearer when running the New York line.
Samuel Doyle, about 27 years of age, five feet seven Inches high, full faced, short, fair hair, fond of Company and strong Liquor, was a soldier in Captain Robinson's Company of Pennsylvania Rangers, stout and well built, brought up to farming, apt to brag of his abilities in Chopping or mauling rails, very peaceable when sober.

RESEARCH TO DO

Charlou Dolan: It is interesting to note the surnames involved here: A James Wilson was one of the witnesses to the releases above. Also, William Walker's daughter married a Thomas Wilson. Also, two of William Walker's grandchildren married McCallisters (Thomas Harmon married Jane McCallister, and his brother John Harmon married Mary McCallister).
There is additional information about this family in the book The Greening of West Branch, by Brett A. Nelson, Germantown, MD (1981). According to him, Jane Wilson was the second wife of John Walker, and the mother of all his children, the first wife being Sarah ___. John Walker and his wife Jane (Wilson) Walker moved to what later became Northumberland Co., Pennsylvania. There are supposed to be two Revolutionary War pension applications, one for John (S16017) and one for his son Benjamin Walker (W14088). Also, there are supposed to be biographical sketches of descendants in the following books:
1) Otzinachson: A History of the West Branch Valley of the Susquehanna [Pennsylvania], by J. F. Meginness, 1889, pages 640-642.
2) History of Dearborn & Ohio Counties, Indiana.
3) A History & Biographical Cyclopaedia of Butler Co., Ohio (1882) page 962.

On the 1850 census Sarah was with her son Elisha T. Walker in Botetourt Co., Virginia.

MILITARY SERVICE -- OUR JOHN OR NOT OUR JOHN?

According to the book Walker, Eakin, Preston and Allied Families of Botetourt and Bedford Counties, Virginia, by Mrs. Daniel J. Manton, available in the DAR Library, (page 25) "There is also Revolutionary service in the name of John Walker in the Cherokee Expedition - 1776 - under Col. William Christian. This is attributed to John Walker, born about 1755, son of William Walker." Also, "In 1819 a John Walker, aged 64, a resident of Roane Co., Tennessee, stated that he entered the service in 1777 from Botetourt Co., Virginia. (He had left Botetourt before 1810 census.)"
The information in the Walker-Eakin-Preston book sounds good for our John until one puts it together with the second quotation, which shows that there were two John Walkers in Botetourt Co., either of whom could have been the one on the Cherokee Expedition. We need to see the full pension application for the John in Roane Co., Tennessee, which should describe the service in complete detail.

Walker Jacob Peck and Patsey his wife Henry Walker Isaiah H. Walker George H. Walker and John Shawver and Caroline his wife, Legatees of John Walker deceased.
Where as the said John Walker departed this life intestate leaving lands as yet undivided and to save expence and cost the above named legatees do agree to divide the same in the following manner, viz:

The above named Legatees do hereby choose Joseph Hannah John Spessard and Joseph B. McCartny as arbitartors to value and divide the said Lands as follows, viz, to divide the home place including the piece of Land where William Walker lives in three shares but in case that either William Elisha or George should not be satisfied with the divide then the said arbitrators to divide the pice of Land where William lives for one Lott and divide the home place in two lotts as equal in Value as the nature of the place will admit and the said William Walker is to have the place where he lives, Elisha T. Walker to have the home house place, and George H. Walker to have the lower end of said place together with any other part that the Said arbitrators may add to it to make an equal Share in Value and each of those three Legatees shall pay to the other legatees their portional parts for the pice of Land by them purchased agrreeable to the valuation to be paid in five anual instalment the first payment to be due on the first day of January next and to pay interest on all ballances due from the said first day of January 1839 till paid and the said William Elisha and George may pay any of the other Legatees that they may choose the portions due to each Legatee and it is agreed by the parties that the Valuation and divide of the Lands be consolidated with the personal estate and any money due or coming to the said William elisha or George from their fathers estate may be discounted as part pay for the purchase of the said Lands respectively, but the administrator is to have no fee nor commission on the Lands except the part Sold at public auction (if any) The above named Arbitrators are respectfully requeested to avlue the whole boundry of Land on craigs creek at what they or a majority of them thinks it is worth taken into consideration the way it is to be paid for and then say what sum each of the three Legatees shall pay for their Lott of Land as above stated and the mountain place to be valued in the same way but not divided--but in case that William Elisha or George or either of them refuses to take the pice of Land laid off for them at its valuation then either of the other legatees may take the same piece of Land on the same terms, but in case neither of the Legatees chooses to take any of said parcels of Land or the mountain place on the same terms then and in that case the administrators of the said estate is hereby authorized and requested to Sell the said Lands that neither of the Legatees chooses to take at valuation at public sale to be paid infour or five anual instalments with interest after the first instalment becomes due for the benefit of the said Estate, and the said legatees do hereby bind them selves to convey their tittle to the said Lands so soon as they severally receive the pay for the same.
It is being understood by the parties that Daniel G. Walker has received his portion of his fathers estates in his fathers life time and he being willing to keep the same for his portion therefore he is not party to this article.
And it is understood and believed by the parties that John Walker who Received His portion of this estate in his father's Lifetime, who removed to the western country and departed this Life years ago.
And Robert Snodgrass (who married Polly Walker now deceased) declines being a party to this Article of agreement (the said Polly Walker departed this life previous to the death of her father) and the parties not knowing whether or not the said Robert Snodgrass received his full portion of the estate therefore in case the heirs of the said Polly Snodgrass or the heirs of the said John Walker (if any) should have any Lawfull claim to any portion of the said Lands or any other portion of the said Lands should be [illegible word] from the aforesaid Legatees then each one of the Legatees is to pay their proportional part.

NB the expense of making the above divide is to be paid by the administrator of John Walker's estate and to have a credit for the same on settlement.

General Notes: Wife - § Mary Walker



Charlou Dolan:
Mary Walker married Joseph Snodgrass, Jr., son of Joseph and Hannah Snodgrass of Tinkers Creek. She was apparently the family weaver, as her father left her a loom in the codicil to his will. She was a widow at the time her father died, as her husband had died in 1809. The order of the children is guessed at, based on censuses, ages at time of marriage, etc. The last 4 children were minors when Joseph Snodgrass signed his will 20 Jul 1809.
For a long time the wife of Joseph Snodgrass Jr. was thought to be Mary Bartley. The source of this information has always been, "The DAR says his wife was Mary Bartley." As a matter of fact, the DAR does not say that--the DAR doesn't "say" anything about genealogy, it just serves as a repository for information that other people submit. In this case, all claims that Mary Bartley is the wife of Joseph Snodgrass go back to the first application for membership in the DAR based on the service of Joseph Snodgrass Jr. I have personally checked in the DAR Library and discovered several interesting things. First of all, the original application does not include any source or reference for the claim that Mary Bartley is the wife of Joseph Snodgrass. (Not coincidently, the application was submitted by a descendant of Bartley Snodgrass.) The dates of birth and marriage that are traditionally given to Joseph Snodgrass [b. 26 Aug 1741] and his wife Mary [b. 11 Jan 1747] also originate with this application.
If these dates are to be believed, then Joseph and Mary were married for about 9 years before they had any children, then they had eleven children, ending when Mary was 57 years old. That is not biologically possible.
Another interesting thing to note, is that whereas the first application said Mary and Joseph were married ? ? 1771, the second application said they were married 7 Jul 1771. Evidently the person submitting the second application mis-read the question marks as sevens, and changed ? ? to 7 Jul.
The military service given for Joseph is also incorrect on the first application, as it says it is for Joseph Snodgrass, son of William. Our Joseph Snodgrass Jr. was indeed in the Botetourt Co., VA, militia, but in a unit with his brothers, not in the unit with the sons of William and Isabelle Snodgrass.
To support my claim that Mary Walker, daughter of William Walker, is the wife of Joseph Jr., I have the following evidence:
a) My great-aunt, Anna (Walker) Calhoun, wrote before she died, that William Snodgrass (son of Joseph Jr) and Esther Walker (daughter of William Walker Jr) were cousins. Normally, one would not give too great weight to someone's personal knowledge of their great-grandparents, however in this case it really was personal knowledge. Esther (Walker) Snodgrass lived to be 98, and lived for the last several years of her life in the same town as Anna (Walker) Calhoun. Anna was 17 years old when her great-grandmother died, so she had 17 years of direct contact with Esther (Walker) Snodgrass. Therefore we can in this case place a much greater reliance on Anna's information than we could if she had been born years after her great-grandmother died.
b) In his will William Walker Sr. named a daughter Polly (Mary) Snodgrass. He also named a son-in-law Isaac Snodgrass, and for years people have assumed that Mary Snodgrass was the wife of Isaac. This does not appear to be the case. From Isaac's recently discovered family Bible, we know that Isaac married Sarah Walker, who was deceased at the time her father, William Walker Sr., wrote his will.
c) Joseph Snodgrass Jr. names his brother-in-law John Walker as one of the two executors of his will. During that time period, brother-in-law had two meanings. It could mean the same thing as brother-in-law means today, but it could also mean step-brother. As Joseph & Hannah Snodgrass had died years earlier, Joseph Snodgrass and John Walker could not have been step-brothers. Therefore, John Walker had to be married to Joseph Snodgrass Jr.'s sister, or vice-versa. John Walker was married to Sarah Susannah Givens, and the evidence for that marriage is overwhelming. Furthermore, the husbands of all of Joseph Snodgrass Jr's sisters are known and proved. The only possibility which remains for Joseph Snodgrass Jr. to call John Walker his brother-in-law is if Joseph Snodgrass Jr. was married to John Walker's sister.
d) There is also as circumstantial evidence, the fact that none of Bartley Snodgrass's brothers and sisters named a son Bartley, whereas the name Walker occurs as both a first and a middle name in several of the other lines.
I find this evidence, namely the statement that William Snodgrass and Esther Walker were cousins, that William Walker had a daughter Polly Snodgrass, and that Joseph Snodgrass called John Walker his brother-in-law, adequate to disprove the Mary Bartley claim once and for all.
