Several of my ancestors settled in the Anthony area in the early 1900s (Walker, as well as Carr families, both of whom came from Sevier County, TN). Both my great-grandfather, Jesse Walker, and his brother, William A.Walker (who settled in Harper County) married Carr sisters. However, about all I need now is information on J.D. and Flora (Walker) Winslow. I have only recently found Flora's married name and location (then) from her brother's 1935 obituary.If you'd be interested in doing a lookup when you happen to be in the area where records are kept, you can e-mail me.
