Posted on: Etowah Co. Al Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Etowah/10830 Surname: bedford, walker ------------------------- This information is certainly interesting and hopefully useful in finding some more pieces to the Bedford/Walker connection. I would like to see if you have more information. For example, my Robert Walker (the one I have back the furthest)was born in 1794 in SC. I can't remember when Etowah Co AL was created but was your Wm Thomasson and Betsy Elizabeth Walker married in 1806 in AL? My Walker line was still in SC when Robert's children were born 1814 - 1830's. My Catharine Bedford was born in SC also, wife of John Adam Edgar Walker. My Adam Edgar, son of J.A.E.W., was born in AL in 1849. His (J.A.E. W.) children were all born in AL 1845 - 1862. This would be the timeperiod that your Betsy was in KY. I think the similar Walker/Bedford connection should be pursued. I am sure your line and my line connect somehow. Do you know where Betsy was born? Her parents? etc?
