#1
A great picture showing how farming was done before tractors ; most every farm had a pickup truck. I would say this is Uncle Elmer. Did you notice the two men sitting off to the side? The background looks like the hill today that has Meadowview Subdivision surrounding
#2
The Walkers loved their horses and took great pride in them ; horses for pleasure and for working. That must be Uncle Elmer driving the team of horses
#3
A great picture of the barn and a crop of tobacco ; that must be the tree that Uncle Arthur sat under. The shed in front of the barn has to be the shed from the early 1900's that stood between the house and the barn only later to be torn down
#4
Another view of the barn without the older shed and there stands the tree that stood until the 1990's
#5
This looks like William Dee Walker probably home from the army
#6
Another great picture of the Walker horses
#7
This looks like a young Uncle Elmer Guy posing with the team of horses
#8
I have no idea who this man is wearing the typical Tennessee clothes, all dressed up in his bib overalls and felt hat ; notice the car tag...that is when Tennessee had tags the shape of the state. Love it!
#9
Another neat farming picture that looks like Uncle Elmer with a team of oxen
#10
William Dee Walker posing on the street of Radford, Virginia
#11
The back of this picture says "Uncle Arthur" so it has to be Arthur brother to Elmer who was living with Elmer and family when he died in 1922. I am most certain he is sitting on the horse in front of the house where his brother Henry Andrew lived with his family. Again notice the roadwork being done and the year has to be sometime between 1915-1922. I wonder who made this picture? Found in the files of Uncle Elmer Walker pictures

Love this color picture of William Dee Walker when he lived in Virginia.
#13
William D. Walker operated a chicken farm near Radford, Virginia
#14
William Dee Walker home on a leave with unidentified friend. No paved road for Douglas Shed Rd in the 1940's
#15
William Dee and sister Ruth ; notice the car tag says "5" which is Sullivan County
#16
William Dee with friends from the army on leave. William is on the right ; could this be Lookout Mtn, Tennessee?
#17
William posing alone and he certainly looks like a Walker in this picture that just may be Lookout Mtn. Tennessee
#18
The following baby pictures were in the collection that Sandra Walker had .... so I am thinking these cute babies are Uncle Elmer and Aunt Minnie's children

A precious picture of little Elmer Guy Walker ; is this Uncle Elmer or his son Elmer Guy Jr? ; the clothes he is wearing look to be from the 1890's and not from 1911? He certainly looks like Don Walker
