The following is from Bernice Dismukes Book "Dismukes and Their Kin".Bernice did not give sources for her material; much of it factual - I caution you to verify everything for yourself:
Samuel Walden married Mary Dismukes b. 1729 married in Pittsylvania Co., Va.
Chldren:
Francis Walden b. 8 Feb 1757 m. Richard Boyd
Sarah Walden b. 10 Dec 1758
Richard Walden b. 10 Oct 1760
William Walden b. 24 Nov 1768 d. aft. 1820
Lewis Walden b. 13 Jan 1771
Anne or Ann Walden b. 20 )ct 1773
Elijah Walden b. 10 April 1775
2nd wife of Samuel Walden was Jane Sills
Mary was the daughter of William Dismukes & Mary Walker Ellis.
From My own research:
William's DOB was probably about 1694.Some sources give St. Ann'a parish as his birth place this was over in Essex County if he was born where his father paid taxes onland that was in King & Queen County Virginia.He was probably born in the "upper reaches" of the county forming Caroline County in 1727.
His death date is confusing because 3 William Dismukes deaths are recorded in Caroline County between 1770-1773 and it's hard to tell who is who.But most likely is the 1772 record where Mary (his wife), John (his son) and William (another son) are named as exceutors to his will.
William was first married to an Elizabeth Thornton.I have found Thornton family in Caroline County but no marriage records yet.I do not know if they had children together.
According to Bernice Dismukes, William had one brother James.But I have found court records to support a third brother Eames.I'm not sure what records led Bernice to assign the 9 chidren to James & 9 chidren to William.More research needs to be done before trusting her work in this area.
Hope this helps
