Deb, I had to go & figure out the connection, so to make a long story short: Mamie Dell's grandmother, was Mary Elizabeth Palmertree before she married. Eliza was the daughter of Wiley P'tree, who had a bro. name William, who is/was my husband Basil's great great grandfather. I can not put your Walker's & Basil's grandfather Duran Walker together. Think there is not connection. Duran's father, James W. was from S.C. Came to Miss. after the Civil War. Hope I haven't screwed your mind up too bad. My figures (most of the time) can't type just like I would want them too, with my saw dust brain. Just hang in there & maybe we all can get you straight, where you come in. Peggy
