Misc. Notes
HIS EARLY YEARS:
I
have recently (early 2008) exchanged a lengthy series of notes with Randy
Walker (see notes with Robert Walker Esq.) and with Craig and Kathy Walker (who
descend from Robert Jrs. Son Robert III). This draft is intended to incorporate
their comments and corrections into my report on Robert Walker Junior.
His
birth date is taken from Quaker records, which will be discussed later. (The
record would have originated in 1798, when Robert joined their church, and is
presumably based on Robert's own reporting of his birth date.)
Our
first primary reference for Robert Junior is found in 1768, when he is listed
with his father on the Rowan County North Carolina Tax list. Therefore he must
have been "of age" and subject to the poll tax by that year. Their
home would have been in the area of modern day Walkertown, NC. See discussion
notes with his father.
We
have shown a marriage date of Robert and Mary Jones of 1775, although there are
concerns about the accuracy of that date. See later discussion. However a
marriage of about this time is roughly consistent with the births of his oldest
children.
There
are several references to Robert Junior in the Surry County Court minutes
– see discussion with his father for more background. These references
tell us that Robert Junior continued to live in the Walkertown area through at
least February 1787, and in Surry County through at least 17 Nov 1787.
The
evidence of where he lived is indirect, but convincing. Robert Jr. was often
assigned to "view" roads. This would be a normal civic duty of the
time. And such activity would normally be assigned near the person's home. (See
Surry Court Minutes for 12 Aug 1779, 18 Feb 1780, 16 Aug 1780, 14 Nov 1781, 14
May 1785, 10 Aug 1785, and 15 Feb 1787.) The "clue" to the location
of these roads is in the names of the other people listed: Robert was on teams
that were usually sent to "view the road from David Morrows house" to
various destinations in various directions, and the viewing team often included
David Morrow and William Dobson. And those names are prominent in the history
of modern Kernersville, NC – a Google search will tell you more about
them and about the area that became Kernersville.
Anyway,
David Morrow's house was strategically located at a major crossroads, and
Robert Walker's house was just a few miles away. That crossroads is now at the
corner of Main and Mountain Streets in Kernersville – and close to
Walkertown. At the time it was where the Deep River Road (east – west)
crossed the Intercolonial Stage Line (aka Hillsboro Road, aka Great
Philadelphia Wagon Road). This latter road ran all the way to Philadelphia, and
passed near Bethlehem, PA, where the Moravian settlers of the area originated.
Randy
Walker reported: "I have a record that Robert received on 7 Aug 1787 a
State Grant for 200 acres on Crooked Run of Little Yadkin River." This
location would be about a mile north of the land held by his father, Robert
Esq., which in turn was just north of Old Richmond. The date is about a year
after his father's death. Best guess is that Robert Jr. planned to expand
holdings in that area, and maybe settle there? But within a short time
thereafter a decision was made to split the county in two and abandon Richmond
as a county seat, and that may have put a damper on Robert's plans for the
area?
MILITARY RECORD:
We
know that Robert served in the North Carolina Militia during the American
Revolution. A list of men serving from Surry County can be found at:
http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/ROWANROOTS/2000-12/0977979214
And
we know that the "Robert Walker Junior" listed here is our man, again
because of the names around him: Out of the 53 names listed after "Captain
Henry Highland", we can find 40 of them in the Surry County Court Minutes
as conducting business at the Surry County Courthouse. These are Surry County
men! So there can be no doubt this is the right Robert from the right place.
Robert
also received vouchers of a type that were normally paid for being wounded. You
will find two such vouchers, for Robert Walker, Salisbury District (that would
include the Surry Militia), Vouchers #678 and #1438. Given the location, there
is little doubt this is OUR Robert. See the following:
http://www.ncgenweb.us/ncrevwar/vouchers.htm
There
is another piece of evidence of his military service, but this one comes with
problems: We found a land transaction as follows, indicating that Robert
acquired land in Tennessee from rights based on his Revolutionary War service:
"William
(Wright) 1819 Assignee of Revolutionary Warrant #584, originally issued to
Robert Walker, Jr, a John Armstrong Grant, entry officer of Claims for the
Western Lands; 1800 acres in Green Co TN on Duck River, beginning where the
soldiers' west boundary line crosses the said river the last time, etc.; issued
10 July 1784. On 1 October 1814 Robert Walker, Jr., assigned the warrant to
Thomas Wright, who in March 1819 assigned it to William Wright in the presence
of Wm. Cash."
So
what's the problem? Well, these warrants were supposed to be for "North
Carolina regiments in the Continental Line", and our Robert was in the militia
(i.e., NOT the regular Continental army). He therefore should have never been
entitled to such a grant!
We
do however think there a real likelihood that Robert did get this grant - but
it may well have been obtained under fraudulent pretenses. Consider: Who was
one of the Walker family's closest friends? Martin Armstrong. And who was responsible for issuing the
military (and other) grants? Martin Armstrong, and his brother John
Armstrong. And who was at the heart of a tremendous scandal that developed
over these Tennessee lands? Martin and John Armstrong. (Martin, at one
time, held 50 land patents and 260,000 acres just for himself!}
Craig
and Kathy Walker sent the following reference, which explains a little more
what was going on:
http://www.tngenweb.org/tnland/pruitt3.htm
Now,
for the most difficult military claim: We found an unconfirmed report that at
least one of the above Vouchers was issued for being wounded at the Battle of
Kings Mountain on October 7, 1780, but we have NOT been able to verify.
There are some rosters available of men who fought at Kings Mountain, and
Robert is not on them. However it seems that none of these rosters claim to be
complete. So it may be possible, but for the moment we have to say we have no
evidence that Robert fought there.
Other
prime candidates for militia service from Surry County would be the Battle of
Shallow Ford (14 Oct 1780), or the Battle at Guilford Courthouse (15 Mar 1781).
The former was very near where Robert lived, the latter was the next county
east, and the home of his wife's parents.
THE MISSING YEARS:
I
cannot find Robert between 17 Nov 1787 (he was a plaintiff in a Surry court
case) and 1795 (when he appears on a Surry tax list in a another part of the
county). Specifically, there is no Robert Walker in the 1790 census for Surry
or Stokes County. (Or for Guilford County, see next discussion.)
I
may have one really weak clue: His son, William, was born in 1790. And in the
1850 census, William reported that he had been born in South Carolina.
But the next child, Mary, was born in 1792, and the 1850 census for her says North
Carolina. So maybe Robert lived in South Carolina briefly? (Two weaknesses to
this theory: First, while there were six men named "Robert Walker" in
the 1790 census for SC, NONE of them have a people count that matches Robert
Jr's family. Second, William's son Bartlett Yancy, in the 1880 census, says
father William was born in North Carolina – although since B.Y.
grew up in North Carolina he may have just assumed his father was born there?)
Another
theory: Maybe Robert had land dealings in Tennessee, which became a territory
(i.e. no longer part of NC) in 1790. Maybe Robert and family went off to
Tennessee, which was not party to the 1790 census?
CAUTION: RE THE MISSING YEARS, AND
INFORMATION INCONSISTENCIES!
There
is another theory, that is far more troublesome to those of us who have come to
believe we are descended from Robert Walker Esquire, through his son Robert:
Could it be that the Robert Junior we trace BEFORE these missing years, and the
Robert we trace AFTER, are two DIFFERENT MEN?
Randy
Walker has seen suggestions that at the same time Robert Esquire and Robert
Junior were living in Surry County, there was another Robert Walker and Robert
Junior in Guilford County. Further, Craig and Kathy Walker have an uncle (H.
Ray Walker) who did some research, and Ray claimed that they were descended a
Robert Jr. living in Guilford County at the time the of the famous
Revolutionary War Battle of Guilford Court House, that he owned land at the
site of this battle, and that this Robert Jr. had at least two children born in
Guilford County. If this is true, then there have to be two different men,
because the Robert Jr. who is the son of Robert Esquire is clearly dwelling in
Surry County in this time period.
I
had a look at Land Warrants in Guilford County, including the Rockingham County
that was split off from the north half of Guilford in 1785. And there is indeed
a Walker family present from at least 1778. And the men are using the names
Robert, James, John and William. These names match those in Robert Esquire's
family, but they are CLEARLY a different family. One wonders if they ultimately
come from the same roots as Robert Esquire, perhaps even being connected to his
brothers?
Craig
and Kathy plan to dig through 5 boxes of notes collected by their uncle over
the July 4 weekend. Hopefully there will be something there to support or deny
Uncle Ray's theory?
Craig
and Kathy Walker also raised another problem: They found a bio for Miles
Walker, that talks about Miles' father Robert III. And it says Robert III (born
7 Dec 1783 per Quaker records discussed below) "was born in South
Carolina, where he grew to manhood, and after marriage removed to North
Carolina . . ." This implies his father Robert II was living in SC in
1783. But the Surry Court minutes seem to place Robert son of Robert Esq in
Surry County NC in roughly that time period! If true, this is serious conflict.
While
it is possible Robert was moving about, it's awkward to explain. However the
bio may have some credibility problems anyway: First, the phrase "after
marriage removed to North Carolina" for Robert III may be problematic
– the tax lists discussed below show that Robert II was in Surry County
by 1795, when Robert III would have been only 12 years old! Second, in the 1880
census, Miles himself says his father was born in VIRGINIA! So I consider the
SC connection to be very tenuous.
It
is only about 5 miles from the Surry County home of Robert son of Robert Esq.
to the edge of Guilford County, and only about another 10 miles farther to the
Guilford Courthouse and the Quaker New Garden MM (see next discussion).
Hopefully we will eventually show there was only one Robert Walker Jr. living
in that narrow space, and our case for descent from Robert Esquire will be
confirmed. I still think it MOST likely that the Robert Walker found in Surry
County before 1787 and the one after 1795 are the same person, but at the
moment cannot prove it.
Robert
Walker Jr. surfaces in Surry County again in 1795, and we'll discuss that in a
moment. But we wouldn't be sure of him without his presence in some Quaker
records from 1798, so we'll look there first. He became a Quaker when he was
about 50 years old, and much information about him and his family can be found
in church records. The information is readily available at Encyclopedia of American
Quaker Genealogy, Vol. 1 [database online]. Orem,

The
first group of records above shows birth and death dates, as recorded in church
records. They are pretty straightforward, but note that our "Robert
Junior" is reported here as "Robert Senior". He did not enter
the church until his own father had died, and he in turn also had a son named Robert,
so at that time he was the "Senior".
The
second group of records requires translation of the Quaker abbreviations. The
first entry says that on 5 May 1798
Robert was "recrq" - - meaning "received (into
membership) by request, rather than by transfer of membership from another
Friends Meeting".
On
1 December 1798 his wife Mary was "rocf New Garden MM", meaning she
was "received on certificate from the New Garden Monthly Meeting". In
other words, she transferred a prior membership from a different church.
Perhaps she was therefore the motivating force behind Robert's request for
membership? ("New Garden" was in Guilford County, NC.) Further,
Mary's death is also reported, which suggests she was still a member in 1853.
Also her parents (Richard and Jemima Jones) were members of the New Garden
Quaker Church at the time of Mary's birth.
Next
we find that on 6 April 1799 all of Robert and Mary Walker's children are
listed, indicating that they were all received into membership on the request
of their father. One of these is my ancestor, William.
And then in various later
years, we find most of the children listed again, with the abbreviation
"dis", which means they were "disowned" by the church for
misconduct. That translates as "Éremoved from membership for violation of
the rules or advices in the Discipline; does not imply exclusion from worship,
but only the right to participate in decision making. Unless the person later
repented and "condemned" his or her own misconduct and was later readmitted
into membership, he or she would not be mentioned again in the minutes."
For a few of the children,
a reason for this is given. They are "dis mou", meaning they were
"disowned" for being
"Émarried to a non-Friend, usually resulting in disownment;
sometimes used interchangeably with "married contrary to discipline"
or "married out of unity."
Now, this gives us an
interesting piece of information about ancestor William, who was "dis
mou" on 5 September 1818. We still don't know his exact marriage date, but
now know that he was clearly married to his bride Catharine Kimbrel by this
date! And Catharine was clearly not a Quaker.
Kathy Walker brought to my
attention some interesting records from the New Garden MM (Page 580), from
where Mary transferred her membership:
NEW GARDEN MONTHLY MEETING:
WALKER
1798,8,25. Mary con her
mou.
1798,10,27. Mary gct Deep
Creek MM.
This completes the story,
and tells us that the Friends did not accept Mary's marriage to Robert, because
he was not a Quaker at the time. To get back to full membership she first had
to persuade Robert to join, and that was accomplished on 5 May 1798 at Deep
Creek MM. Then she had to go to New Garden, and be publicly "condemned for
her marriage out of unity", per the entry on 25 Aug 1798. Then she arranged
for New Garden to "grant certificate to Deep Creek" on 27 Oct 1798.
Then finally she is accepted at Deep Creek on 1 Dec 1798. And to complete the
process, the children still living at home are accepted on 6 Apr 1799. Now they
are a unified family in the Society of Friends!
So, Robert Walker Jr. was a
Quaker, and the Quaker's were often opposed to slavery, and census information
shows Robert did not own slaves. However Robert's father had owned slaves, and
not all Quakers were opposed. Where does this leave Robert? My guess is that he
was (or became) opposed to slavery, in part because his wife was born into a
strong Pennsylvania Quaker family that probably brought northern attitudes to
North Carolina. Robert did not join the church until he was 50 years old and
his father was dead, so it may have taken Mary a while to convert him?
TAX AND CENSUS:
Surry
County Tax and Census records allow us to keep very good track of this family
from 1795 through 1830. They are clearly living in the southwest corner of
modern Yadkin County (split from Surry county in 1849) on Hunting Creek. And
after Robert's death, we can track his widow in 1840 and 1850.
Robert is absent from the Surry tax lists
for 1790 through 1794. This suggests he was either not in the county, or at
least was not a landowner at the time.
TAX: In each
year from 1795 through 1798 the tax list shows he has 652 acres and 1 white
poll (the poll tax was the primary source of county revenue). In 1799 he has
940 acres, and in 1800 he has 768 acres.
CENSUS: In 1800 he
has three sons age 16-25 that are consistent with any three of his four sons
John, James, Richard and Robert Jr. He has a son <10 who would be our
William. There are 5 young females (he only had 4 daughters, but one female
could be the wife of a son).
CENSUS: In the
1810 census it appears that two of the oldest sons have moved out (count is not
clear, think maybe there are one or two grandchildren living in house and
perhaps a spouse of a son – or maybe they had hired servants). His son Richard
is also found in this census, in the same county – now on his own.
TAX: In 1812,
Robert Senior has 368 acres, and son Richard has 321 acres, each with 1 white
poll – and they are clearly neighbors. Looks like Robert split his land
holdings with son Richard? Note also that he is now listed as "Robert
Senior", suggesting that Robert III, born 1783, is an adult presence
somewhere? (Wonder if Robert III became steward of the family's Tennessee
lands, since he had children born there? "Tennessee Lands" would be
consistent with the land speculation of Robert Esquire and Robert Junior.)
CENSUS: In the
1820 Census there is one more new male, and two more new females, all under age
10 in Robert's house -- these are almost certainly grandchildren. His sons Richard
and William are also found in this census on their own. (They are listed
adjacent to Robert, but that appears to be because the census taker decided to
alphabetize his work. The next record, however, shows they indeed LIVED near
each other.)
TAX: In 1824,
Robert has 800 acres with a value of $1600, Richard has 427 acres with a value
of $250, and William has 468 acres with a value of $800. And they are very
clearly close neighbors. (Trivia Info: Using a CPI deflator, this
extended family's land value of $2650 would be worth about $60,000 today
(2008). However if you use "Unskilled Wage Rate" as a deflator, it
would be worth $555,000. The latter may be a better measure of how affordable
this much land would be. Keep in mind that the work force includes three male
heads of household plus assorted working age children.)
Note
also, this 1824 tax record finally tells us where they lived in the county: The
earlier years were simply reported as "Captain Hudspeths District",
which is not geographically helpful. However in 1824 we learn it is in the
Hamptonville District, on the waters of Hunting Creek. That would place them a
few miles southwest of Yadkinville, where their Quaker church was located.
In the 1830 census Robert
and his sons William and Richard very clearly live very near each other. The
ages are correct for Robert (would be 82) and Mary (would be 72), and the head
count and ages are exactly correct for William's family. However in Robert's
house there are 3 unexplained females age 20-30, 2 males age 20-30, and one
male age 15-20. These could be grandchildren, or they could be servants. None
of these three Walker families own slaves. There are 26 people in the 3
households.
DEATH DATE:
We know Robert was present
in the 1830 census, and he was gone by the 1840 census.
However we can suspect that
most of his children, who were present in the 1830 census, stayed in NC until
Robert's death. After his death, they arranged for their elderly mother to live
with her daughter Mary Walker Martin (see below), and then most of them moved
to Henry County, Indiana. I know from my own research that sons Richard and
William moved to Indiana. Further, Craig and Kathy Walker report that they have
further determined that children Robert*, Jamina and Anne also moved with their
families.
*(Kathy reports that Robert
III may have been the westward pioneer of the family, arriving in Indiana by
1828, and settling in Wayne County (adjacent to Henry County). She writes:
"He was in the Wayne County, Indiana 1830 census. According to later
census records, he had children born in Tennessee in 1823 and 1825 and another
born in Indiana in 1828.")
Looking to my own ancestor
William, I believe he was still in North Carolina in 1833 – because the
1850 Indiana census indicates that his child Rachel C. was born in about 1833
in North Carolina. And I know he was in Indiana in 1835 – because that is
when his first wife Catharine died and was buried on their Indiana farm.
So best guess is that
Robert Walker Junior died about 1833-35, aged 85 to 87.

But
now let us introduce some confusion about Mary: I have shown a marriage date of
18 Aug 1775, and that has to be within a couple of years of correct. However I
have serious doubts about that exact date:
There
is a marriage record extracted from the Family History Library, County Records,
Salt Lake City, UT, dated 18 Aug 1775, showing that a Mary PROWELL married a
Robert Walker in Guilford County, NC. This creates obvious difficulties, since
the DATE matches that assumed for the wedding of Mary JONES to Robert Walker,
but the record says the name was Mary PROWELL.
There
is NO question that the name of the "Mary" who married Robert Walker
Jr. was "JONES". See the above church records. One possibility is
that the transcript in the Family History Library is wrong about the name? (I
have found another source in the Houston Clayton Library, but it may be quoting
the same microfilm.).
The
other possibility is that the Mary PROWELL who is in the marriage record is NOT
the same person as Mary JONES, and the above marriage date was applied here in
error. It is even possible that Mary PROWELL actually is the person who married
Robert's father, not Robert Jr. (We know that Robert Sr. also took a second
wife named "Mary" in roughly this same time frame.) I guess there is
even a more remote possibility, that Robert Sr. and Robert Jr. were married on
the same day? More research is needed.
