General Notes: Husband - James C. Walker


He was born August 14. [CBRWC, 412]

He attended the country schools in Jefferson Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and then assisted his father on the home farm, which finally became his own property. He continued to reside on it until April, 1908, when he retired to Eldersville, leaving his son to manage the farm. The place was well improved, the farm house in particular being a fine building. He never tested for either oil or coal but never sold his rights. He was a member of the Cross Creek Presbyterian Church and a Republican.

After his marriage he immediately bought out the interest of the other heirs in the homestead, and made it his permanent home.
