RESPONSE: I believe I have read that John S. M. WALKER was from Hawkins Co., TN. However, I can tell you that as of the 1850, 1860 they are in Hancock Co., TN. Then they come into Clay Co. I have no information on the ELROD family. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA Message text written by INTERNET:KYCLAY-L@rootsweb.com >Thanks Joyce & Nancy, Do either of you know if the Clay Co. death records usually named parents on them. I suppose it's just like any other county, some do and some don't. What's the best way to obtain 1898 death records from Clay? I don't know much about Clay Co., only Laurel and Knox.. So anything you tell me would be new info here. I'm really hoping that this Nancy (Elrod) Walker turns out to be a sister of "our" Rowan Elrod who settled in Pulaski Co. If so, then her parents are Peter Elrod & Sarah (?). I hurried over to the 1880 online census and found a John & Nancy Walker. She looks to be about the right age for the one I'm looking for. She was born in NC and her daughter, Susan, was even born in TN!
