In 1726, brothers John, Jr. and Alexander returned to Augusta County with their families. They were accompanied by five other families that also settled in Augusta County. John Sr. and his wife did not come back to Virginia because he died in early 1776, in Chester County, Pennsylvania, and his wife remained there with other family.
The Walker Family became a prominent Augusta County family. They were farmers, and blacksmith. Family members served in the French and Indian War, the Revolutionary war, the War of 1812 and the Civil War. Alexander Walker was a gunsmith.
