The first tobacco was raised in Henry County, Tennessee, by William Walters.

85	v.	Elizabeth WALTERS⁵⁴ was born on 23 September 1811.⁵⁰ She died on 8 August 1856 at the age of 44 in Henry County, Tennessee.⁴⁹ Grave markers in Walters Cemetery show that Elizabeth Walters' husband was William Moody, b. 12 Apr 1803 and d. 8 Jan 1876. Their children also buried in this cemetery include: Henry Moody [31 Aug 1834 - 28 Dec 1834], daughter Wilmouth Moody [25 Feb 1839 - 29 Aug 1840], Robert [1 Dec 1850 - 19 Oct 1855] and Joseph [1 Dec 1854 - 19 Oct 1855] 1850 Census in Henry Co.

86	vi.	William WALTERS^{8,55,56,57,58} was born on 2 January 1813.⁵⁰ He died in 1885 at the age of 72 in Gregg County, Texas.⁸ William married Elizabeth Arnett in 1833. Which William? Is the following William son of William & Elizabeth Ball, or is it William, son of Abraham & Judith Thomas [see his notes]. I believe this man's death recorded 1885 in Gregg Co TX as in the family group sheets in the Library in Paris, Henry Co, TN may be an error, and it was his cousin William, son of Abraham & Judith that died in Texas. In 1840 there were two William Walters living in Henry Co TN. They could be the two first cousins. One was listed as having 2 males, age 20-30 in the household [this William would have been about age 27 and had several brothers of similar age], and 1 female age 20-30. The other William Walters was age 30-40 [William son of Abraham would have been about 34], 1 female under 5 and 1 female age 20-30. The section for young males is obscured by a blot. There was also a William Walters living in Grainger Co TN and one in Washington Co TN, but neither of them fit the families any better than those in Henry Co.

Information about the Rushing family came from Early Settler Biographies, Benton Co, TN; submitted by Dallas Greer from the files of Norma Watson to sites.rootsweb.com: The suname of Jemima's mother was indeed Sarah Herrin. She married Abel Rushing 22 Jul 1807. Abel Rushing was born 1787 in Anson Co NC and died 26 Aug 1835. Sarah Jane Herrin was born 20 Mar 1788, died 29 Nov. 1857. The Rushings moved to Stewart Co TN from NC. He served in the War of 1812 & crossed the Tennessee River to claim a land grant by December 1820 - this area became part of Benton Co.

93	xiii.	Sarah Ann "Sally" WALTERS^8,61 was born in January 1824.⁵⁰ She died on 13 November 1878 at the age of 54 in Benton County, Tennessee. Sarah married 17 Oct 1839 to Robert T.

[Information below indicates Thomas was age 10, not 16, in 1850.] Information about the Rushing family came from Early Settler Biographies, Benton Co, TN; submitted by Dallas Greer from the files of Norma Watson to sites.rootsweb.com: Robert T. Rushing was a son of Abel Rushing & Sarah Jane Herrin, and a brother to Jemima Rushing that married Sally's brother Obadiah Walters. Robert T. Rushing born 29 Feb 1812, died 21 Feb 1854, Benton Co TN. Sarah "Sallie" Walters Rushing died 21 Feb 1854, Benton Co TN.

William WALTERS and Anna BABB were married about 1825 in Henry County, Tennessee.¹ Anna BABB^8,49,62,63 was born in 1782 in North Carolina.⁶² She died on 29 July 1874 at the age of 92 in Henry County, Tennessee.⁴⁹

Anna was the daughter of John Babb and Media Brown. There is a problem with the date of the marriage seen as 9 Jun 1824 because the cemetery records of Elizabeth Ball Walters state that she died 1 Sept 1824. William could hardly have married another wife before the first had died. Descendants of this line state that they married in 1825 - much more likely.

Records compiled by Dora Walters Latham, daughter of John Henry Walters, son of Henry Babb Walters, son of William Walters gives this information in her research for membership in DAR:
William Walters married Anna Babb in March, 1825, in Henry County TN. Anna Babb was the 3rd child of John Babb and Media Brown. She resided on a farm granted to her father for services in the Revolutionary War. According to the 1850 and 1860 census, Anna Babb Walters was born ca 1782 in North Carolina. She is buried in the Walters Cemetery near Manleyville.

1850 Census, Henry Co TN Henry B. Walters, age 24. Ann, age 61, b. North Carolina lives with his family.

1860 Census, Henry Co TN, District 7, p.381, Household 660
Henry B. Walters household includes Anne, age 73, b. NC.

Anna Babb Walters grave marker says she was 92 years old in 1874. This would indicate a birth year of 1782. The 1850 census indicated she was born in 1789; perhaps her age in 1850 was 67 rather than 61.

William WALTERS and Anna BABB had the following children:

Henry Babb WALTERS^{8,19,49,62,63} was born on 23 September 1826 in Henry County, Tennessee.^1,50 He died on 7 September 1892 at the age of 65.⁴⁹

Henry married Emily Louise Alton 18 Jul 1850. He married Elizabeth Bell on 4 Nov 1873.

Henry was head of household in 1850. Age 24. Living with him was Emily, age 15, Ann, age 61 born in NC, and Mary age 20. Emily was his wife; Ann his mother.

1860 Census, Henry Co. Henry B. Walters age 33. Emily L. 25, William R. age 9, Ann and Louia age 6 [apparently twins], John H. age 2. Ann Walters, age 73, b. NC.

Markers in Walters Cemetery show that Emily Alton Walters, wife of H. B. Walters was born 27 Jul 1835 and died 2 Dec 1867. A second wife, Elizabeth C. Bell Walters, born 6 Jun 1836 and d. 11 Aug 1892, is also buried there. Two daughters of Henry and Emily are buried in Walters Cemetery: Louisa [13 Oct 1853 - 20 Dec 1867] and Emma [15 Jan 1856 - 17 Apr 1956]

Children of Henry and Emily were:

Mary WALTERS was born on 14 December 1829.⁸

This child found on a family sheet in the Walters Papers. Not given in the bible record. However she is in the 1850 census living with her brother Henry, his wife, and their mother.

In the Texas Deaths & Burials, 1903-1973, at FamilySearch.org. there is a listing for the death of Mary Walters, on 19 Dec 1921, San Marcos, Hays Co, TN. She was buried the next day.
