Dear Wanda,
I am a decendent of John Walls, Jefferson Walls, John C. Walls,
Lee Franklin Walls, Hazel Walls Rusie, and then I fit in. I am the ninth child of Hazel
Walls and Brooks L. Rusie.
I have been trying to find a Capt. William Walls, John Walls father
According to his John Walls Pension application, his father was
a Revolutionary veteran. My John Walls was wounded by a British Long sword, and was taken
for dead. He survived, and moved to Bourbon County, Ky, then to Montgomery Co., Ky.
He married a Sarah, but I do not know her surname. Their graves are in Greencastle,
Indiana Old Cemetary behind Depauw University football field, or at least the football
field was there when I visited many years ago.
I am compiling our lineage, but there are a lot of gaps in it, and I hope to fill them in
eventually.
I haven't been working on it for a month. My dear husband, Richard, passed away Feb.
25th. We would have been married for 60 years on April 5th.
Hope to hear from you, so sorry it has taken me so long to answer.
Sarah Rusie Setchell
