DESCENDANTS OF REV. TIMOTHY WALKER.
BY JOSEPHI B. WALKER, ESQ.
[NOTE. The following genealogy, divided into generations, commences with that of Dea- con Samuel Walker. The Roman numbers mark the generations, and the Arabic, in paren- theses, attached to the Roman, the paragraphs devoted to different families. The figures in the first left hand column of Arabic numbers mark the number of descendants, including Dea. S. W., and those of the second column, separated from the first by a hyphen, the num- ber of tho children of the family, in the order of the ages, to which they are attached.]
The first Anglo-American ancestor of the family has not and perhaps can- not be determined with certainty, but from a note addressed by Dr. Farmer to Charles Walker, Esq., it would seem that he was either John Walker, the first of the name among the freemen of Massachusetts, who was ad- mitted a freeman April 4, 1634; or Augustine Walker, who was admitted in 1641, both of whom settled in Charlestown, Mass. Between these and Deacon Samuel Walker, the father of Rev. Timothy Walker, a chasm of several generations intervenes, which cannot be supplied with much assur- ance of accuracy. In conflict with this supposition, however, a manuscript record of the family, in the hand writing of Charles Walker, now in the possession of the compiler of this genealogy, states that Deacon Samuel Walker was himself the first Anglo-American ancestor, and that he, with a brother, came to this country from the west of England, and settled in Wo- burn, Mass. With his name the following record commences.
First Generation.
(1) I. Deacon SAMUEL WALKER lived in Woburn, Mass., in a part of the town afterwards called Wilmington. His first wife, Judith, died Nov. 14, 1724, and he married for his second wife Mrs. Fowle, widow of Major Fowle, who died Oct., 1748. Dea. Walker subsequently removed to Bur- lington, and died in September or October, 1744.
Dea. Samuel Walker left the following children :
2-1. Timothy, born July 27, 1705. (2) II.
