Life

George S. Walden was born in Georgia in 1814, according to the FamilySearch tree, which names his parents as Charles Sparks Walden (1772–1833) and Sarah Walker (1783–1854).1 His wife was Emily E. Walden, born in Tennessee about 1825; her maiden name is not known.2 The tree names four children: Charles R. (born 1846), Mary E. (1848), Julius Walker (1851–1916) and Laura (1854).3 In 1850 the federal census found the family in Cherokee County, Alabama, indexing him as "Geo L Walden".4 By 1860 they had moved to the Northern Division of Talladega County, Alabama, where he was enumerated as G. S. Walden, and the censuses of 1870 and 1880 again place him in Talladega County, the 1870 index giving the name as "George Wadden" and that of 1880 as George S. Walden.5 The 1880 census is the last record of him in hand, and the tree gives no date or place of death.6 Inference By 1900 Emily was living in the household of their son Julius W. Walden at Athens, Clarke County, Georgia, which suggests that George had died by then, but no record of his death has been found.7
