Gideon And Charles Walker Genealogy

The Genealogy Of Charles And Gideon Walker

We are all human, and tend to make mistakes from time to time. This includes church officials, municipal clerks, census enumerators, and, believe it or not -- professional genealogists. Just because it says so in the "official" records, doesn't necessarily mean it is true. All to often we blindly accept these records as completely accurate.

Good advice is: be a little bit skeptical and research for yourself.

We have made every attempt to document dates and locations and obtain the correct spelling of names for our Walker families. In the event we can not prove the place of birth, death, marriage or spelling accuracy, we have inserted the words 'possibly' ,'unknown', about or placed double year dates. As new documented information comes forth, this page will be updated to reflect the changes.

All locations are in our United States of America unless otherwise stated
