T. E. WALKER CHECKS
Milano, Milam County, Texas
December 26, 2001
The following information was copied from checks written by my grandfather, Thornton Elisha Walker, in the mid-1920's. At the time that the checks were written, my grandfather was farming near Milano, Milam County, Texas. The Morgan payees are kindred of Elizabeth Lodema "Lizzie" Morgan Walker (my grandmother--wife of Thornton Elisha Walker). The checks are currently in my possession.
