¦ Note:
* In the 1850 Tippah  County, Mississippi, USA Federal Census, Thomas is living with this family.  He was  72 and it is not clear to me if possibly the census taker could have meant the number to be a 22 as this would work out for him to be the eldest son.  If this is a 72, Thomas could be the father of Walker as Walker was 45 at the time.
