Here’s my direct Walker lineage:

Father: Russell Walker 1946 – 2006

Grandfather: Albert Walker 1912 – 1988

Great Grandfather: Herbert Walker 1888 – 1992

2nd Great Grandfather: William Walker 1860 – 1939

3rd Great Grandfather: Henry Wilson Walker 1831 – 1912

4th Great Grandfather: James Thomas Walker 1806 – 1850

5th Great Grandfather: Samuel Walker (1779 – 1822 not sure this is correct) – married to Elizabeth Parrish

That’s as far back as I can take the Walker… unfortunately, Samuel Walker is a bit of an enigma – Any chance you have information on him? I hired an Ancestry genealogist to look into him but nothing concrete came of it

Hi Robert,

Drop me a note anytime if you have any further questions. I am happy to help.

Thank you very much, I thought the wilkes county marriage records was sufficient for source. I guess i need a better understanding of the requirements for source. Looks to me like if the court system uses Y dna to prove who the father is, then it alone should be sufficient for source especially since, 2 different men in different branches have the same Y dna and both claim the same great grandfather, looks like that would confirm the great grandfather.

Hi Robert,

I'm looking forward to working with you on those profiles! I have sent you an email with details.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for having a Big Heart and adopting Orphan Profiles. You will want to read this After adopting orphans FAQ to understand what to do next and it explains the special attention those profiles need.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Hi Robert

I look forward to working with you on those profiles.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Because pre-1700 ancestors are usually shared by many descendants, collaborating with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential.

Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus, whether time period, location, or topic. Review the project pages to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Can't find what you're looking for? Let me know, and I can make some suggestions! :-)

Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

Robert,

I was thrilled to see your addition to the information about David Alexander Walker. I am descended from Henry Walker 1741-1792., most likely a son of David. Henry's findagrave memorial number is 179990955. Here is the comment I have made about his parentage on findagrave:

"Parents: The creator (me) of this memorial has seen several charts and genealogies that have David and Mary Munford Walker as Henry's parents. I have seen no documents for this claim, however Y DNA tests have proven that Henry is in the same line as David."

I have seen other children of David and Mary documented, but never with my Henry. There was one source on ancestry that I saw, maybe from fold3 that listed his military service with a brother, but I let it slip by without noting the source.

His birth date must be out there some where. I have seen it used multiple times, but I have never seen any documentation tying him to David and Mary (Munford) but as stated above the DNA test indicates it is all but a certainty.

If you are descended from David Jr. and III, we would be cousins.

I grew up in the same community that Henry lived in the late 1700's in Mecklenburg County, VA and have lived my adult lie near Ft. Wayne, Indiana.

If you have any interest of communicating, I would be glad to hear from you.

And if you can please add your question that you will be working on or the profile marked "needs profiles created" for the challenge. Thanks.

Got a question, see this page as well: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Integrators_Challenge

Also, you can put a sticker on your profile You can do so by adding the words Integrators Challenge with the {{ }} in front and back, in your biography.

Thank you and Good Luck!! Dorothy ~ Integrators Project Coordinator

Hi again Robert

How is it going so far. were the How-Tos tpages helpful or did they leave you with questions?

Please ensure location data matches date of profile, avoid abbreviations, they cause confusion. Adding citations & links for sources as you go. From a profile wiki ID go to Research to find sources.

We want to help you learn about the site and the community, so hopefully you found all the different elements useful. I have page one, bookmarked as a reference page.

Questions click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page.

PS If you get a "Page Not Found" error when you click the link, you can find a working version in the public comments on your profile.

Thank you Robert for volunteering, You are now a full member of the Wikitree community. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Please start with the How-Tos - they are really useful as you add profiles and learn your way around

If you click the green tags on your profile page, you'll see if other members are following the tag. Add more surnames, locations, Country, County or town tags to improve links to community & research options

To add tags click editing your tags

Take your time, if you need any help using the site, let me know
