    3. Hello Memucan Walker, 1764-1836, was in Greenbrier Co. probably by 1790's. He was a Revolutionary War soldier and an early school teacher in Greenbrier Co. My information says he was born in either Greenbrier Co. or Lunensburg Co. SC. and spent some time in Maryland. His second wife was Raphel Lewis, daughter of Hezekiah Lewis. Does anyone have any proof of who his parents were or any brothers or sisters? I have his son Joel and his wife Mary Lucinda Fuel (SEWELL?) and some of their descendents. Is it possible for any one to do a lookup of a possible will for me? Thanks. Always glad to share what I have.
