WALKER - Walker 11229 Kentucky Genealogy and Biography, Volume V, Battle – Perrin – Kniffin, 4th ed. Washington Co. LEWIS D. WALKER, farmer and stock raiser, and fourteenth child of D. C. and Martha S. Walker, was born in Washington County February 26, 1846. He remained with his parents until reaching his majority, and was educated in the common schools, and the Covington Institute at Springfield, which institution he attended several years. He was reared to agricultural pursuits, and commenced farming for himself about the year 1868, taking charge of part of the paternal homestead, which he now owns. His farm is one of the best improved in the Springfield Precinct, and as a farmer and successful stock raiser he is ranked among the best in the county. In 1878 Mr. Walker was elected magistrate of the Springfield Precinct, which position he still holds. He takes an active part in the deliberations of the county court, and is one of the most careful and methodical business men of the body. He is a Democrat in politics, but not in the strict sense of the term a partisan. Like his brother, J. H. Walker, he has never married, and the two live together upon the beautiful farm of the latter, four miles northwest of Springfield.
