Research Notes

• HIGHTOWER Genealogy and Family Roots.

Walter A Walker.

One of the earliest HIGHTOWER researchers was Walter A Walker.

The earliest Hightower family of whom we have records lived in Richmond County, Virginia, before the year 1700. There, in 1698, the estate of Joshua Hightower was administered, suggesting Hightower residence there sometime before that date.
