Hi, I'm getting nowhere with this line. Thought maybe someone new would have something--ANYTHING! 1 Lewis M. Walker b. 1862 Greenbrier Co d. unknown (possibly in Webster Co) 1st m. Minnie A. McCoy/McAvoy b. 1868 Nicholas Co, WV d. 1900 Nicholas Co 2 Robert Ivan Walker b. 1892 Nicholas Co d. unknown 1st m. Lucinda Given 2nd m. Esta Christian 2 Coy L. Walker b. 1894 Nicholas Co d. unknown 2 Alden Oscar Walker b. 1896 Nicholas Co d. 1965 Kanawha Co 1st m. Florence Wright 2nd m. Sylvia Opal Bowen 2 Villeria Walker b. 1900 Webster Co d. 1900 Webster Co 2nd m. Luverna Unknown 2 Artie Walker b. 1902 Webster Co d. unknown 2 Taylor Walker b. 1904 Webster Co d. unknown 2 Virgil Walker b. 1906 Webster Co d. unknown 2 Falla Walker b. 1908 ??? 2 Mary Walker b. 1910 ???? 2 Floyd E. Walker b. 1912 Webster Co d. 1915 Webster Co. Strange things about this family: 1. All of Lewis' children were born in even-numbered years and there is 2 years between each child. The one child that broke this pattern died 2 months after her birth. My daughter thinks that Lewis murdered her. 2. The first three sons were all born in August. 3. Lewis' first wife, Minnie, died in Nicholas County but the death was record in Webster County. Plus, Lewis stated that he did not know the name of her parents. Her death occured only one month after giving birth in Webster County. 4. There is a story in the family that one of Lewis' daughters was kidnapped or ran away from home and never heard from again. I know it wasn't Falla or Mary. 5. Florence Wright, 1st wife of Alden, supposedly was born and died in Webster County but the County Clerk has nothing on her. 6. Alden and Sylvia supposedly lived in Birch River, Nicholas County from 1925 until 1945. But I recently discovered that they lived in Jerryville, Webster County for awhile. I'm sure that to those more experienced will not find these events at all strange. I, however, am starting to wonder about Lewis. He appears to have been a creature of habit and I have to wonder why there were not any children born between 1885, when he married Minnie and 1892, when his first son was born. Keeping with his pattern, there is room for 3 children (1886, 1888, 1890). Could Lewis been away from home during this time? If so, where was he? I'm open to any suggestion. Thanks, Cathy ALL COUNTIES ARE IN WEST VIRGINIA
