Glenna,
My mother was a Walls also. Her father was Robert Jackson RheaWall 1876-1962 m.
Mary Adeline CAMP. 1899-1964. They had 15 children.
Robert Jackson's had 5 brothers and two sisters. His father was Elijah Edward
Walls b. 9-27-1851 d. 6-19-1930 m. Sarah Jane Elizabeth RHEA
Elijah Edwards Father was William Walls b. abt 1827 m. Caroline GREEN b. 1832 d.
1852.
I don't show a Robert D. Walls in my files, but it is not real complete from
Robert Jackson on back. I only show two children of William Walls b. 1827, I'm
sure there were probable more children. The age is right to be a younger
brother.
I am posting this also to the Green, Rhea and Camp list.
