    1. [PANORTHA-L] WALTON and RHOADS
    2. Kay Long
    3. I am interested in the family of Thomas Walton 1775 Bybery twp, Philadelphia Co, died 25 oct 1825 Northampton co [son of Boas Walton& Mary Ashton] thomas wed Rebecca Rhoads born 1787 in Northampton co ch= Boas S 1805- John abt 1809- Jacob abt 1811 ELIZABETH abt 1813 Amelia abt 1815 DELILAH abt 1817 Joseph abt 1819 MATILDA abt 1821 My husband's ancestor DELILAH Walton born dec 1819, died 1903 in Luzerne co, PA she wed Joseph Wilkerson 1816-1852 and had children Thomas, Rebecca, & Mary Elizabeth. Does anyone know who Thomas Walton's daughter Delilah married? Adding interest to my questions is the presence in my Delilah's Luzerne County neighborhood of 2 more Walton girls whose parents are unknown to me. Matilda born abt 1824 wed A Harrison Wilkinson, and Elizabeth b 1814 wed in 1835 to Bernard Sutliff. Since Thomas died before the children were raised I wondered if Rebecca Rhoads might have remarried and come to Luzerne Co. There are Rhoads girls Susannah & Elizabeth who married Dodson brothers who came to Luzerne county and there is a Walton family in the area but I have found no Matilda nor Delilah among their daughters.
