    ARTHUR WALKER, a retired farmer of Jefferson Township, was born in Virginia July 27, 1821, and is one of a family of twelve children born to Joseph and Catharine (McKorkle) Walker, both natives of Virginia and of Irish parentage. Joseph Walker was a blacksmith by trade, and participated in the second war with Great Britain. He left Virginia because of his strong opposition to slavery.
