General Notes: Husband - John Walter


He learned the blacksmith and edge-tool trade with John Steel, and for thirty-seven years carried on this business with great success, both in Allegheny and Westmoreland counties, Pennsylvania. He purchased a farm, known as the old Kirkpatrick farm, in 1832. It was then nearly all in woods, but in 1838 he moved on to it, built a log house, and began clearing it up. In 1848 he erected a brick residence, just south of Oakland Cross-Roads.
Mr. Walter was a Republican in politics, and took a warm interest in the success of his party, to which he was so long attached. With his family he was connected with the Poke Run Presbyterian Church, of which he was a trustee.
