General Notes: Husband - Solomon Walker

---

He came to America with his wife in the same vessel as his brothers-in-law, Andrew and David Gregg, about the year 1722. Landing at Boston, they made their way to the Scotch-Irish settlement in Londonderry, New Hampshire, where David Gregg settled and spent the remainder of his days. Solomon Walker and Andrew Gregg, not being pleased with New Hampshire, returned to Boston and sailed for New Castle [Delaware?], where they arrived in the autumn of 1725. They spent the winter at a furnace belonging to Sir William Keith, Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania, on Christiana creek, near Newark, Delaware, and in the spring of 1726 sought homes on the Susquehanna. The Walkers located in the Cumberland valley. [CRFP, 855]
