General Notes: Husband - John Norris Walker
He was a lifelong farmer. Until twenty-one years of age he worked on his father's place, and from that time until his death, he workedpon the farm later owned by his son, John N. Walker.
He was for many years a member of the Presbyterian Church.
He early identified himself with the Democratic party, and always advocated its principles. He held important township offices, and in 1855 was elected to the office of county commissioner, which he filled for three years. In 1869 he was a candidate for the State Assembly, and carried his native county, but was defeated in Beaver County, which was then a part of the legislative district.
