General Notes: Husband - Aaron Walton


His father was a farmer in Connecticut, where he died not far from 1820.

He was born in New England, and removed to Chenango County, New York, which was then a forest country, in the latter part of the 1700s.

In 1823 Aaron Walton, Sr., came to Columbus township, Warren County, Pennsylvania, bringing with him his son Aaron, and built a log house on his farm about two miles northwest from the present village of Columbus, and about half a mile north of the "Center" so called. He returned at once to Chenango County, New York, leaving his son and hired men to clear the land. In the fall the son Aaron returned and married that winter. In the spring they both came back, and in the February following John, Asa, Andrew, and Daniel, the other sons of Aaron, Sr., walked from Chenango county to this wilderness by the way of Syracuse and the south-east. Aaron, jr., built a new house for himself and his bride, while all the rest of the family lived in this first log house.
He died at the age of eighty-two.

He and his wife had eleven children, ten of whom, four daughters and six sons, attained years of maturity.
