["The Book" - John W. and Nancy (Owen) Walker and Their Descendants]. David A. WALKER, son of John W. and Nancy (Owen) WALKER of Hebron, Marshall County, Alabama, left for Texas in 1853 with his wife, Adaline (Herrin) WALKER, and a small son, Montgomery Hamilton WALKER, whom David had named for his brother. Also going along to Texas was David's brother Bertram "Burr" WALKER who had married Elizabeth HERRIN, the sister of David's wife, Adaline HERRIN. Also going to Texas with these folks was a brother of these Herin sisters who had married Walkers. His name was Elijah "Lige" HERRIN. By the late 1850s, David's wife Adaline Herrin WALKER had died leaving David with three small sons: Montgomery H., born 1852; John Bertram, born 1854; and James Marshall WALKER, born 1858. David's brother Bertram "Burr" WALKER and Burr's wife Elizabeth (Herrin) WALKER took the three young boys in� to their home to raise because David was working building a railroad and could not be home all of the time to care for three small sons and so far he had not remarried. These WALKERS from Marshall County, Alabama, settled in Rusk Coun� ty, Texas. When the Civil War started, David A. WALKER, his brother Bertram Burr WALKER, and his brother-in-law "Lige" HERRIN joined up from Texas and were sent to Louisiana to help rout the "Yankee" there. Elizabeth was home in Rusk County, Texas, keeping David's three sons while the men were off fighting for the Confederacy in Louisiana. The follow� ing letter was found in a Bible that had belonged to "Burr" WALKER and his wife Elizabeth. It is from David A. WALKER to his sister-in-law Elizabeth (Herrin) WALKER who was keep� ing his three small sons. The Confederates had just cap� tured a Union army gunboat and the letter was written on the ship quartermaster's paper. May 1st 1864 Camped at Macnuts Military Camp GenServ Report Output: vitals 9 Oct 1999 Dear Sister, I have the opportunity of dropping a few line to you on my rest period. Burr has just received a letter from you a few minutes ago dated March 28. The letter gives me great satisfaction to hear that you were all well at pre� sent. This letter leaves me and Burr both well as common, but it leaves "Lige" sick with the fever and something like the flux or running off at the bowels. I have nothing of interest to write to you more than the Feds are leaving Alexandre now. At this time we are in 15 miles of Alexan� dre. At this time we are expecting to fight there tomorrow. We are driving them back as fast as they drove us at the start, except a little faster. Our Company fought their gun boats 2 days this week and lost nary man in the fight, tho that mayn't be the case the next time, tho I am in hopes it will be so. We took a right smart of stuff from them in the fight. We took and sunk four boats from them and killed a great many Negroes on them and 20 or 30 Yankees and killed several Yankees on the boats. Tho this is the last gun boat that they will get me to fight if I keep my senses about me. After we took the boats, the officers would not let a Texan go on them. They put Louisianans to guard them and not let a Texan on them or take anything off of them they wanted. We were not allowed to go on the boat, and I stood for about as long as I could and I walked in, guard or no guard, and taken as much paper as I could tote out in my arms and I told the guards to stand aside for I was coming out and they got out of my way and let me pass by them. If they had not have got out of my way, I would have shot them out of the way. We are getting a plenty to eat now at this time tho this is not always the case when we are fighting off the Yanks and when there are Yanks about there is nothing to eat about. You wrote something about clothing in your last letter. I have plenty just at the present if I could get to them, but I am near Alexandre and my clothing is at Mansfield and there is no liklihood of ever seeing them again, tho I will make out until I get them or quit this war one. I want you to make me that coat I told you to make for me again I come home. I will send some money just as quick as I draw money fithout fail. Make them if you can. Tell the children I have got them a purty a piece and to be good boys like boys are supposed to be. Tell "Gum (Montgomery) and "Bud" (Bertram) I have got about 5 quires of paper for them and I will send it to them the first chance I get to send it to them. Tell Jimmiy that I will get the prettiest thing for him yet. Well. I must come to a close for I am in a hurry. You must excuse bad writing and spelling. So you must write soon as you get this letter without fail in doing so. Give GenServ Report Output: vitals 9 Oct 1999 all my inquiring friends my best regards and the women folk in particular. So nothing more at present. I only remain your brother until death. So good by for this time. (from D. A. Walker to E. E.
