Notes for William Raymond Walker: In 1910 Census his boy Frank, said that he was from Colorado. This is different than info off of death certificate. On the 1900 Census when his mother was remarried to Spencer Myers, he stated that his father was from Missouri and his mother was from Illinois. According to Melba Fisher nee Walker, William Walker was divorced from his wife and moved back to Missouri. She said he maintained Contact with Frank though. I'm checking thru his papers to find reference to him.
