| | Most, but not all, Walkers in Chalkley's Chronicles can be traced to the Wigton Walker line as describe by White 1902. The above is a Summary of Male Descendancy of the Wigton Walker line, based on White, 1902. This includes the Walkers Creek and Natural Bridge lineages. Also included is thethe lines of Samuel the Orphan, known to be related to the Line of John III by YDNA, but also known not to be related to the line of Samuel of Natural Bridge. Not currently shown are the lines of, Alexander the Orphan, and the Letterkenney Walkers, all of which share the Walkers Creek YDNA signature with John III and Samuel the Orphan.) Entries marked "X", indicate individuals who are believed to have "died young", died without children, or about whom nothing is known.

1738-1759
Records for an adult Alexander Walker in the area prior to about 1778, could be associated withAlexander 42, ALexander 26, Alexander 29, and Alexander 28. Alexander's 42 and 29 definitively do not appear until we see his will recorded in 1770. Most of the following records are probably for Alexander 26 and 29 of the Wigton Walker line, except as otherwise noted.

| | Walker | Alexander | | 2 | 269 | 1750 | Page 145--Wm. Patton, aged 64, deposes, in Rockbridge, 7th November,1806, he has lived in Rockbridge 56 years since last May. After the Revolution there was a rapid increase of immigration from the North. James Wardlaw and deponent's father were intimate. James had a son Hugh and a son Robert. There were Indian troubles for about 10 years. Fifty years ago there was a fort at McClung; the last incursion was 43 years ago, when 16 or 17 people were killed. Deponent helped bury them and they were attacked at the burial. These were very early settlers, viz: James, Alexr. Saml. Walker, James Moore, Saml. Coalter, Jno. Wallace, Archd. Rhea, James Rutherford, James Buchanan, Andrew and Charles Hays. Deponent was born September, 1742. McDowell was killed Christmas or New Year's, after his birth. | Note that the Walkers mentioned as the very earliest settlers included only James, Alexander, and Samuel Walker. Those are probably James (126), Alexander (26), and Samuel the Orphan; does not mention Gunstocker John, John III, or ALexander 28 or Samuel of natural Bridge.

Porter, for John McCroskey, for Wm. Buchanan, for Charles Hays, for Alex. Walker, Jr., for Alex. Walker, Sr., for James Walker, for John Walker, for John Wallis, for Andrew Hays, for Jacob Anderson. | First use of "Jr." and "Sr." to distinguish between two different Alexander Walkers. Appropriately aged "Alexander Walkers", believed to have been present in Old Augusta between 1738 and c1770 include: Alexander (26), (28) and (42). Alexander 26 and 28 are cousins in the Walkers Creek Line, while Alexander (42) is not known to be related to them. The settlers listed in this processioning settled in the Walkers Creek and Hays Creek watershed on Borden's Grant. Alexander (42) settled near Augusta Stone Meeting House near the modern Rockingham County line, on Beverley's Manor. This suggests that the two Alexander Walkers listed here are of the Walkers Creek Line of Walkers and presumably ALexander 26 and 28

Porter, for Robert Catton (Cotton), for John Hurt (Hart). | property owners in this list are in the general Walkers Creek area, indicating that Alex Walker and Alexander Walker Sr, are Wigton; It is likely that ALexander (26) (aka Sawney) and ALexander (28) are being referenced, as they would have been the only adult Alexander Walkers in the area at this time. On the otherhand, "Jr." might refer to Alexander (42) of Stone Meetinghouse. He was certainly in the area by about 1768, and might have been here earlier, requiring the "jr." epithet to distinguish him from the Alexander who settled in the area in the 1740's. If so, Alexander Sr probably refers to Sawney Alexander Walker (26), the Wheelwright. Indeed, clear records for Alexander (28) are difficult to find.

This is the first time this byname is encountered, indicating that by this date (1767) there are other adult Alexander's Walkers who could be confused with each other. This may indicates that ALexander (42) has newly arrived in the area, and is not numberered among the Wigton Walkers.

2) (338) Hugh Donaho appointed surveyor of highway from Thos. Connelly's house to James Beard's ford, vice Alexr. Walker. | Beards Ford was located on the North River, north of Staunton.

| | Walker | Alexander | 2 | 384 | 1785 | 17th May, 1785--Alex. Reid, [guardian bond] John Walker, [guardian bond] Alex. Walker. | Person:Alexander Walker (42)
| | Walker | Alexander | 1 | 273 | 1793 | MAY 24, 1793. (276-277) Isabella Walker, orphan of Alex. Walker, deceased, has intermarried with Robert Reed, and suit abates as to her. | Person:Alexander Walker (42)
| | Walker | Alexander | 1 | 412 | 1797> | MARCH, 1797 (N to W). February, 1796. Isabella and Barbara Walker, infants, by Hugh Donaghe, their guardian, vs. Elizabeth and Robert Walker, Arthur Connolly and John Campbell.-- Alex. Walker, father of oratrixes, and husband of Elizabeth, and father (?) of Robert, died, 1774, with will. Bill for accounting. Elizabeth Walker's answer, sworn to 10th December, 1790. Spa. in chancery, 2d June, 1787. This suit contains settlement of the estate, with all the heirs, giving names. | Person:Alexander Walker (42)
| | Walker | Alexander | 2 |
65 | 1799 | Alexander Walker and Penelope, his wife, vs. Jennings Beckwith--O. S. 16; N. S. 6--Bill filed 9th June, 1799. In 1764 Sir Marmaduke Beckwith, of Richmond County, grandfather of Penelope, gave her by deed in 1764, which was proved in Richmond County, and her sister, Elizabeth Beckwith, two negroes. During minority of Penelope and Elizabeth, their father, Sir Jonathan Beckwith, took the negroes as guardian. Elizabeth married Thomas Jones and died in 1777. Jennings Beckwith was brother of Penelope. Sir Jonathan died in December, 1796. Alexander and Penelope were married in 1797 | Person:Alexander Walker (32)
| | Walker | Alexander | 2 | 292 | 1790 | 1790--March 22, Alexander Walker and Magdalene Hamer; surety, Joshua Parry (next friend). | White 1902:363 gives a marriage of Alexander Walker (27) to Mary Magdalene Harmon. This is presumably the same couple. It is likely that the surname White gives her (Harmon) is in error. Note that Alexanders' father was married to Jane Hammer.
| | Walker | Alexander | 2 | 350 | 1798 | 1798, list of marriages by Wm. Wilson, March 22d, Alex. Walker and Magdaline Harner; | This looks to be the second marriage of Alexander (27). White 1902:363 identifies his second wife as Margaret Combs. Perhaps a confusion has occurred fusing the last name of the first wife with the first name of the second wife. White gives Mary Magdalene a total of 14 children, some born before 1798, and some after. Perhaps they represent a mixture of children by both wives.
