Deb, I'm also related to the Wallens.... but we went by WALDEN. My great-gr-gr-great grandfather was Andrew Wallen who married Drusilla Hartman. My great-great was Jesse who married Emilie Williamson & later Mary Durham. My great-grandfather was Andrew Taylor Walden who grew up in the Cove also... my grandmother Anna Walden grew up there as well. Sheila
