General Notes: Husband - Lewis Walker

---

He came to Pennsylvania from Wales in 1687 and settled near Philadelphia. Welsh and Quaker backgrounds were thus mingled in forming the traditions of the family.

He came originally from the border of Scotland, but directly from Wales. He settled first at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and afterward at Valley Forge, where he purchased from Penn one thousand acres of land. He erected the first stone residence (still standing into the 1880s, though enlarged) at Valley Forge, and gave the ground for a Friends' meeting-house and cemetery. The house was used by Gen. Washington for his quarters, and the meeting-house for a hospital in the Revolution.
