HISTORY AND FAMILY LORE OF OUR WALKER FAMILY
Our goal in creating this website is to pass on to our children and grandchildren a legacy of our family history that might well have been lost. I wish to acknowledge and give thanks to all the people who have shared their Walker and related families information so it could be placed here to help other researchers.
IN MEMORIAM: DUCK, Francis Earl - Suddenly on February 21st, 2014 at the Norfolk General Hospital in his 79th year. Loving and best friend of his wife, Marjorie (nee Utman). Devoted father of sons Bill and Bob (Christa) and daughter Lori. Grandfather of Emily and Bradley. He will be missed by his brother Danny (Camilla) and predeceased by his brother Gordon. Also predeceased by his father Gordon and by his mother Mary Beeley (Ed). Brother-in-law of John and Eileen Chesney. He will be sadly missed by his many nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles.
PERSONAL NOTE: Francis Duck, who worked tirelessly to help locate sources in Canada passed away in February. We had developed a close albeit distant relationship with Frank and his wife Marjorie. The majority of the Ontario Walker information in Ontario is due to his hard work. Fortunately we had traveled to Ontario the previous October to research at yet another source Frank had found but it was still a sad shock to hear of his death so soon after our visit. Frank you will be missed.

HISTORIC NOTE: Alamance County, NC was originally part of Orange County, NC, the county immediately to the east. Alamance County was officially proclaimed a county in April of 1849. The boundary to the north finds Caswell County, south is Chatham County, and west is Guilford County. There is little information on William Walker. He owned property on Hogans Creek. Hogans Creek is in Rockingham County, NC, and flows in a northeasterly direction through that county and Caswell County until it empties into the Dan River. That area is on the far western edge of Orange County as it existed in 1769. Walker also named, as his executor, John Robertson, whose name matches that of a man known to have lived on Country Line Creek since 1761. What this means is that the Walkers lived in an area that today is the southeastern corner of Rockingham County.

IN MEMORIAM: DUCK, Francis Earl - Suddenly on February 21st, 2014 at the Norfolk General Hospital in his 79th year. Loving and best friend of his wife, Marjorie (nee Utman). Devoted father of sons Bill and Bob (Christa) and daughter Lori. Grandfather of Emily and Bradley. He will be missed by his brother Danny (Camilla) and predeceased by his brother Gordon. Also predeceased by his father Gordon and by his mother Mary Beeley (Ed). Brother-in-law of John and Eileen Chesney. He will be sadly missed by his many nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles.
PERSONAL NOTE: Francis Duck, who worked tirelessly to help locate sources in Canada passed away in February. We had developed a close albeit distant relationship with Frank and his wife Marjorie. The majority of the Ontario Walker information in Ontario is due to his hard work. Fortunately we had traveled to Ontario the previous October to research at yet another source Frank had found but it was still a sad shock to hear of his death so soon after our visit. Frank you will be missed.

HISTORIC NOTE: Alamance County, NC was originally part of Orange County, NC, the county immediately to the east. Alamance County was officially proclaimed a county in April of 1849. The boundary to the north finds Caswell County, south is Chatham County, and west is Guilford County. There is little information on William Walker. He owned property on Hogans Creek. Hogans Creek is in Rockingham County, NC, and flows in a northeasterly direction through that county and Caswell County until it empties into the Dan River. That area is on the far western edge of Orange County as it existed in 1769. Walker also named, as his executor, John Robertson, whose name matches that of a man known to have lived on Country Line Creek since 1761. What this means is that the Walkers lived in an area that today is the southeastern corner of Rockingham County.
