Jacob Walker #3, son of George Walker #2 and wife Margaret [s/b Ann], born ca 1695, died August 1757, married Nov 6, 1723 (Norfolk County Marriage Bonds) Courtenay Tucker (1705-1748), the daughter of Robert Tucker and wife Frances (Courtenay), who married secondly "Scotch Tom" Nelson, immigrant; she died probably ca 1753.
Jacob Walker was prominent in civil and church circles, and served as sheriff, justice 1726-1729, and as vestryman of St. John's Church from 1752-1756. His father in law gave a silver chalice to this same church, when George Walker #2 gave his affirmation to his will in 1722, evidence that he would not take the oath.
After leaving Elizabeth Cith, Jacob and Courtenay Walker settled in Yorktown, where "quiet dignity drew around their lives a curtain that is hard for us to pierce. Records of births and marriages are all that come through to prying eyes".
