Biography

He was born in either 1808 or 1809. Some records show him as "John Walters". He was born in Pennsylvania, but his parents relocated during his early childhood to Sugar Creek Township, Tuscarawas County, Ohio. The farm on which he lived remained in the family until at least 1920. He helped to muster troops for the Union cause during the Civil War.

The 1860 U.S. Census records his surname as "Walters".

His last child was born in May 1875. He does not appear in the 1880 U.S. Census. Thus, his year of death is estimated to be sometime between 1874 and 1880.
