General Notes: Husband - Robert H. Walker


He came with his parents to a place in Rayburn township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, which later became his own home. When they arrived, the place was entirely unimproved, and was overgrown with underbrush, which added to the hardships of preparing land for cultivation in those days of primitive appliances. Under his father's tuition he learned the carpenter's trade, and the house and barns built on the property were the work of his hands. The tract originally comprised 160 acres. He made his home there continuously, and throughout his active years carried on general farming successfully, becoming one of the well-to-do farmers of his section. As a citizen he was useful to the community in various capacities, holding several important local offices. In his political views he was always a Republican. In church connection he was a Baptist.
