Person:William Walters (15)

!William had a family Bible in which the birthdates of four sons is recorded. The Bible then picks up with Elijah's family. There is a possibility that William had a daughter born about 1786. On 27 Mar 1847, Moses and Elijah, who were sons of William, and a Mary Ann Walter transferred some land to John Walters. (John was the oldest son of John Walters and Sara Hudson.) This evidently was Walters land to which all were heirs. (See Historical Southern Families - Mrs. John Bennett Boddie - 1971.) J. Durant Walters, deceased, formerly of Charlotte wrote a book about the Walters Family. There is a Walters Family file in the Monroe, NC Library that contains many notes and documents of the late Col. Louis E. Hicks.
