Life

Joseph Forney Walden was born at Kellyton, Coosa County, Alabama, on 25 October 1900, a date and place the FamilySearch tree gives without an attached source, the youngest son of William Walker Walden and Emma Louise McKinney; his Alabama death record names both parents.1 The federal census of 1910 lists him as Joe F. Walden in the household (the people living together at one address, as the census-taker recorded them) of his father, William W. Walden, at Red Apple, Marshall County.2 On 24 July 1919, as J. F. Walden, he married Elba Bell Linch in Tallapoosa County.3 The census of 1930 recorded Joseph F. Walden in Birmingham, Jefferson County, and that of 1940 found him with his wife Elba at Fairfield, in the same county.4 He registered for the Second World War draft at Birmingham on 14 February 1942 under his full name, Joseph Forney Walden.5 In April 1950 the census listed Joseph F. Walden, with Elba, at Kimberly, Jefferson County.6 The tree names one son, Harold Eugene Walden (1927–1996), whose Social Security file names both parents.7 Joseph F. Walden died at Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on 16 November 1971, and his death record names his wife, Mrs. Elba Walden; the tree places his burial in Birmingham, and the Find a Grave index entry attached to him is under the name "Joseph E Walden".8
