Life

Julius West Walden was born in Alabama on 11 September 1880, a date the FamilySearch tree gives without an attached source, a son of William Walker Walden and Emma Louise McKinney.1 The federal census of 1900 lists him as J. W. Walden in the household (the people living together at one address, as the census-taker recorded them) of W. W. Walden in Coosa County, Alabama.2 On 15 June 1910 he married Jimmie Tillman Mansfield of Goodwater in Coosa County; the county marriage index gives the bride's name as "James Tilman Mansfield".3 The tree names two sons, Julius West Walden Jr. (1912–1989) and Jack Tillman Walden (1916–1974).4 He registered for the First World War draft as Julius West Walden.5 The censuses of 1920, 1930, 1940 and 1950 recorded him with his wife in western Jefferson County: in election precinct 53 in 1920, at Fairfield in 1930 and 1940, and again in precinct 53 in 1950.6 He is named in the Alabama county record of the marriage of a Julius W. Walden and Catherine Boyd on 8 December 1938, in which Jennie Mansfield also appears.7 Inference Since Jimmie Mansfield is named there as well, the groom was most likely their son Julius Jr., and the father is named as a parent.7 Julius West Walden Sr. died at Bessemer, Jefferson County, on 22 October 1968; his wife died a week later, and both were buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Birmingham.8 He is named in a newspaper obituary entry of 13 August 1974, the year the tree gives for the death of his son Jack.9 Inference The obituary is probably Jack's, which would also explain why the tree records a residence for Julius at Birmingham on 11 August 1974, six years after his own death.9
