Hi, You mentioned Walker County. Be some of these records are not in Waller County, northwest of Houston towards Texas A&M. Capt Alfred Henderson Wyly, commander of East Texas Redlanders is buried there. He and his Balch in laws were born Greeneville, Tennessee and were in Henderson, Texas 1836. They were one of the groups which joined Sam Houston at Groce's Crossing the day before Sam Houston turned and defeated Santa Anna at San Jacinto. Other vets of the Texas Revolution are buried in Waller. The Wyly and Balch names are on the bronze plaque in the theatre room of the San Jacinto monument. Santa Anna's army was hungry and out of supplies, thanks to Admiral Moore's Texas Navy and the rebelling Yucatecian Navy cooperating to keep Santa Anna's navy in Vera Cruz Harbor. Sam Houston fought like the Russians, didn't he? I knew some Walkers 50 years ago in Erath County- "Red" Walker, Beulous Walker, and others. Charlie Walker was a neighbor and possibly kin to the Stones of Huckaby. Charlie was a cattle trader and rancher. Think mom said Charlie was one of her distand cousins with Arkansas roots. Take care, Charles Wyly ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
