Hi: I'm wondering if Jeremiah's father, John Walker, was the son of Robert
Walker. Most of the Walkers in Hancock Co. that came from NC were the family
of Robert Walker, Jr. I'll forward your posting to a fellow who's wife has
Walkers from another branch that were in Hancock Co., IN briefly. Bob Goode

WILSON
Searching for descendants of Jeremiah WALKER, b. abt, 1823. Lived in
Jennings Co IN. Jeremiah was a carpenter and was shown on the 1850 census
of
Hancock Co Indiana, with Isaac HENDRIX age 79, b. NC. The next
dwelling
was
occupied by Frederick HENDRIX, b. abt 1811, in KY. Jeremiah's
maternal
grandparents' are Jeremiah WILSON and Rhoda Sutton WILSON, possibly born
in
KY.
according to a source on the 'net.
I have a probate record for the foster mother of James UNDERWOOD living
in
Kansas (formerly of Hancock Co IN). It lists Jeremiah WALKER as
building
a
coffin for Mary after her death, in 1874. Another carpenter, John
L.
DICKSON
and Charley RULEY are also listed in the probate for their costs for
lumber
and other building materials.
Eager to hear from anyone who has knowledge of any of the above families.
