Note:
The following inscription from the family bible of William & Isabella Walker reads:
" James Walker died February 22nd 1888 aged 28 years 7 months".
I suspect this bible entry was penned by William Walker because the entries continue in the same hand after the death of Isabella in 1902. CW May 07
