I am aware of your James Walker. I don't know that much about him since he doesn't show in many McMinn records. How much do you know about him? I've always suspected he was brother or kin to Major John Walker....who is proven to be of Cherokee Heritage BUT we also had two other Walker families in the area at the time. AND, as you probably know, Daniel Helton had m. Martha Walker. Too much coincidence. You can holler at me bjreece@bellsouth.net
