in 1887, "Hiram F. Walker, an old and prominent resident, for whom the town was named, and Wm. Leslie were the original owners of the land in the town of Walker." Also quoting: "Walker township is almost entirely underlaid with coal at a shallow depth from the surface, in most places at from two to four feet. The vein is generally three feet in thickness, and reached by "stripping."

THE SAN SABA COUNTY NEWS, p.4, Vol. XXXII, #13, 29 March 1906: "Mr. H. F. Walker died at 7:05 o'clock Thursday evening, the 22nd, at the home of his son, P.H. Walker. He had been sick several weeks.

HIRAM was a rancher and a blacksmith; was a Methodist by religion. He and family came to San Saba County, TX, in early 1870's and served as County Commissioner as did all of his sons.
