Looking for info on Jonathan Walker b. ca.1790 ?Ky or Carolina's. Pioneered in many southern Indiana counties. In War of 1812. Was an Indian fighter and well known bare fisted fighter. married Mary "Polly" Brenton in Knox Co.,In. Raised 5 sons and 5 daughters. He died in 1856 either Dubois or Pike Co.,Indiana. Had bros., Isaac m. Susanna Risley,Benjamin,James,and possably John,but this may have been Jonathan,himself,also a Thomas who may have been a bro or perhaps his father. All were in Dubois Co. with Jonathan. Jonathan and Polly's children were Almond Bloomfield who died at Perryville,Ky in Civil War,his wife gave birth to Richard after he died,Charlotte,Dessix m. Prudence Mayo,he was also in the civil war at Perryville(My line),Indiana,Jonathan II,Lurena,Mary,Pete,Peter,Sampson also in Civil War,and Surilda. All of them were b. in Indiana. Jonathan was supposed to be of Scotch decent,but it is also very much thought that one of his Walker ancestors was a Native American who m. a white woman,thus mixing the line further. Some of Jonathan's decendents bare the Indian likenesses.
