Dear Brian,
I'd like to ask your opinion about something. My friend on the Walls &
Joseph line has asked me if what I've been able to glean is about as far as
I think I can go. It's been a while since I had time to work on it but am
going to finish putting together what I have on hand. When I'm finished,
I'd like to let you know just what proof I have on the early stuff but it's
not going to be much. If you have gathered any proofs, from books or
otherwise, just on the direct line I outline with what I have, would you be
willing to add any proofs you might have or tell me where to send for them?
I believe that I noticed a Walls that was in Rhode Island early but I
can't remember his given name. He may have nothing to do with the family.
You'll recall that you had a theory you were working on but not ready to
share in regard to the ship captain. Maybe someday that will pan out, who
knows.
A while back I had a call from our friend in Fayette County & he was
going to a courthouse & asked me if he found anything would I be willing to
pay for my copies. The reply was "yes, of course" but I haven't heard from
Allen since. Have you heard from him? Best Regards, Ellen

Nothing is for sure, but the Walls families and Burton families are close in
18th century Sussex Co., Delaware. I have a sister of my ggggg grandfather
from Sussex Co, DE marrying in North Carolina around 1800. She married a
Benjamin Johnson, a Quaker, and must have converted, cause no discipline was
recorded. See Henshaw.
Look for the use of female given names Comfort and Delilah.
Good luck,
Brian Walls
