Walker-Testa Family Genealogy, 1878-1999

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

This subseries includes an assortment of genealogical research about the Walker family. Descendant lists, biographical sketches, photographs, obituaries, and more are included – some of which were compiled by Walker Testa and others compiled after her death in 1999. There is also a collection of books owned by her father, Albert Seth Walker, in the late 19th- and early 20th-centuries and an 1881 bible that has been passed down through the family. Albert Seth Walker likely attended Little Laurel School and later a Normal school in Clay County. He attained a Teaching Certificate and later became a minister. Most of the academic and religious books in this series belonged to him unless otherwise noted. His name and sometimes "Ivydale, Clay Co" appears in the covers of these books.
