Unproven -  birth dates not found

Abel and Sinah Walker lived for some years in Chester Valley, onthe farm bequeathed him by his father, and here all his children were born. He sold this place, and the 5th month, 14th, 1747, is the date of the removal of the certificate of himself, his wife and children from Radnor Monthly Meeting to Hopewell,. Va. His aged mother in law accompanied them. It is written that " she  wa a worthy Friend, being so mindful of her latter end the she prepard and took with her her last wrapping linnen."

They settled at Falling Waters, in the Shenandoah Valley, not far from Martinsburg. They, with many of their descendants, were members of Hopewell Monthly Meeting. The descendants of Abel Walker are more widely scattered than any other branch of the family. Many of them have attained eminence and all are worthy citizens. The old Virginia homestead is, I believe, still standing, and in possession of a member of the family.” excerpt from “Lewis Walker of Chester Valley and his descendants; with some of the families with whom they are connected by marriage 1686-1896”
