General Notes: Husband - William Walker

---

He was born in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and came to western Pennsylvania in 1795. His brother-in-law, John Reed, took out a patent called Reedsburg, in 1778, which William Walker bought in 1796 for £1,039 10s. The farm was in the possession of the family to the fourth generation.
"In the revolutionary struggle he voluntarily stepped forward as one of the defenders of his country, and was in battles of the Brandywine and Gulf Mills. On the retreat of the Americans from Philadelphia he had his sword-scabbard shot from his side."

He died in his eightieth year.
