Brian, again you wrap it up and put a bow around it.
My post # 27582 was to primarily ask if the DNA Group Benjamin J(esse?) Walker b abt 1788 and in the 1830 census McNairy Co., TN, who named a son, Hardridge b abt 1815, could be the son of Jesse Walker & Delilah West, Benjamin b abt. 1788, instead of b abt. 1791?
.....A Benjamin who would have named children, whose names we have: Joseph; Hardridge; Linda; Elander (? after gm); Jane; Anthony; John. There may be a William in the area also b abt. 1805.
I had learned that the Benjamin b abt. 1791 was not Jesse & Delilah's family and removed them from my tree:
... Benjamin Walker 1791 - 1858
....... +Mary Polly Graham 1784 - 1857
We have made major inroads using DNA, but we participants need to correct lineage in the DNA web site.
We have TWO unrelated Walker GROUPS (GR 5 & GR 8)claiming same Wigton Scotland ancestors, John Walker & Jane McKnight.
Examples excerpted next, which includes Benjamin b 1791:
Group 5, Walker DNA study. Note the reference to Mary Polly Sehorn - ?Seahorn:
"Benjamin Walker, Sr. b ca 1749 VA. May have had 4 or 5 sons who lived in middle TN. Benjamin Walker's name may be John Benjamin Walker and he may have gone by the name Jack Walker.
Benjamin Walker, Jr. b ca 1790 NC d 1859 Carroll Co., AR m the widow Mary Polly Graham Sehorn after Oct 1809 at Standing Stone, Overton Co., TN. She had 5 children by Capt. John Sehorn, Jr. and 7 by Benjamin Walker, Jr. She was b June 10, 1784 on Tinker's Creek, Roanoke Co., VA d Sept 28, 1857 Carroll Co., AR....."
“John Walker b ca 1652 & Jane McKnight b ca 1653.
Alexander Walker b ca 1662 and Janet Cowan b 1683
John " Gunstocker" Walker b 1708 Wigton, Scotland & Margaret "Mary" Culton...."
Group 8, Walker DNA study:

Alexander Walker b 19 May 1716 d 1784/5 Rockbridge, VA m 8 Jan 1747, Jane Hammer (Hammers) d 1798 Woodford, KY ...."
