This one belongs to William J. Walker, son of Rev. John Davis and Margaret Ann Houston Walker. It is located at the Head of Barren Cemetery in Claiborne Co. I believe he was probably named after his mother's father, William Jasper Houston.

L-R is a picture of Bill Poore (not positive) and William Thurman Poore. Do not know who the child is at this time. Bill Poore is my wife's, brother to Raymond Foster Poore. Thurman Poore is their father. He married Catherine Isabell Drummonds second.

Raymond Foster Poore, my wife's father.  He was shot and killed by a WWI veteran that he often helped.
The veteran apparently went off of his rocker and started shooting at Raymond as he came up the gentleman's driveway on one of his many visits.

Tombstone of William Thurman and Catherine Isabell Drummonds, which is located at Glenwood Baptist Church in Knoxville.

Veteran's stone for Edward Walker, Jr (War of 1812) and Mahala Tussey.
Also pictured left to right: William Jacob Mode, William Joseph (Joe) Mode, and William Joshua Mode. Edward Walker, Jr. is my boys 6th great grandfather. My boys are tenth generation East Tennesseans.
The grave site for Edward and Mahala is across the creek and up and behind his log cabin on a very steep ridge. The ridge is so steep my sons could hardly open the car doors on the passenger side of the vehicle. Joshua fell off of the rock wall surrounding the graves and rolled under the car. That's how steep the ridge is. Jacob Mode is named, in part, for Jacob Shuff Walker, his 5th great grandfather.
Tim and Phillip Walker were instrumental in procuring the veterans stone and Phillip Walker's tireless research enabled us to find the grave site itself.
