Walker in Missouri and Indiana
I am looking for John T. Walker born 1820 Indiana and died 1888/89 around Stoddard County Missouri. He had married several times. I was told 3 but not sure. He had a son Ozias who was born January 11,1861 in Marion, Indiana and died January 29,1943 in or around Stoddard County Missouri.My family comes in on Ozias's daughter, Emma.
I am looking for John T. Walker's parents. John has a granddaughter that is still living. She is from Johns last marriage to a 16 year old girl. He was around 54 or so. He and his last wife had a son named William, who at late in life, he and his wife had a daughter at the age of 50. This is how John still has a granddaughter living. I have talked to her about John and she said that after John had passed on, his wife left Missouri and went back to Indiana where her parents were. She took only one of her children with her. The youngest baby. She left all the other children,one was William, with John's mother's people who she said that they were Cherokee. William told his daughter about living with his grandmother and that she liked candy.
John doctored both Cherokee and white. It seems that John was gifted with the ability to move objects with just by asking. His young bride did not understand his ways and encourged the children not to talk about it. John could forsee what was to happen. It seems that this gift was a very powerfull one because it has been handed down through many generations.
I would like very much to find Johns parents and learn more about him. I am attaching a picture of John Walker.
