Notes:
* James Walker was married second to Mary Armstrong in 1881; however he had fathered children with her prior to their marriage. He had three children by his first wife Rachel Eliza Sistrunk and nine children by his second wife Mary Armstrong. James Walker applied for an Indian War pension in 1892 and he stated the name of his wives Rachel Eliza Sistrunk and Mary Armstrong. His pension application was denied since he had been a substitute for his father Thomas Walker and was not listed on the muster roll.
