* ''Iowa City Weekly Republican'', April 2, 1884: About 9 o'clock last Wed. nite, John Walker who resides just south of Ryerson's Mill on the West side of the river, crossed the Rock Island Bridge on his way home and started to descend by the flight of high stone steps which lead from the bridge to the road below. In some way, he lost his footing and fell over the unprotected edge to the hard ground below. He was caried home and Dr. Lytle summoned. It was found on examination that no bones had been broken, but his body and limbs were severely bruised. As his injuries were not of a serious character, he will doubtless soon recover. | * ''Iowa City Weekly Republican'', April 2, 1884: About 9 o'clock last Wed. nite, John Walker who resides just south of Ryerson's Mill on the West side of the river, crossed the Rock Island Bridge on his way home and started to descend by the flight of high stone steps which lead from the bridge to the road below.

James Opfell's Research[7]
- In June 1894 the Des Moines Leader reported John Samuel's foot being cut off. It was also reported in the Iowa City Republican.
- AF has b.abt 1854 In 1856 John S. was age 7 b.IOWA. A Farmer, John S. was 29 b.IA OH IN in 1880 living in Fremont Twp. His mother and sister lived nearby. p.271
- There are three Walker children born after the group in the L.T.,IA Book. Jim has them as Elma, Elmer and ? Child Walker.
- Jim also has Anna Walker b 1869 died 1895 on this listing of children. But he says "We do not know who Anna's parents are, she is listed next to Wallace W. Walker in record. She is not listed with the family in 1880." So I haven't listed her here.
- another possible D Chetopa, Labette, Kansas
Roy and Linda Linn's Research
- Iowa City Weekly Republican, April 2, 1884: About 9 o'clock last Wed. nite, John Walker who resides just south of Ryerson's Mill on the West side of the river, crossed the Rock Island Bridge on his way home and started to descend by the flight of high stone steps which lead from the bridge to the road below. In some way, he lost his footing and fell over the unprotected edge to the hard ground below. He was caried home and Dr. Lytle summoned. It was found on examination that no bones had been broken, but his body and limbs were severely bruised. As his injuries were not of a serious character, he will doubtless soon recover.
- 1880: Anna was born in 1880 and died as a small child
- 1881: Elmer (m) and Elma (f) were twins that died in infancy
- Event: June 04, 1894, John had a wooden leg--lost his leg in Altoona when it was run over by a train
- The 1885 Johnson County, Iowa Census lists Sarah and John, along with: Sherman, Elizabeth, Samuel, Hattie
- Des Moines Leader, June 5, 1894: J.S. Walker of Shelby had one foot cut off at Altoona last night. He was a passenger on the train and jumped off before it stopped. He was brought to DesMoines and taken to Cottage Hospital. [Family legend is that he got on the wrong train and when he discovered that he wasn't headed to Shelby, he jumped off.]
- The 1900 Federal Census has Sarah and John living with son Samuel in Township 28, Peoria, Indian Territory
- The 1910 Federal Census lists John as a widow, in Elk, Oklahoma, Oklahoma, living with S., Daisy, Sadie, Hattie, and John Walker
- The 1920 Federal Census lists John as a widow, in Crawford, Cherokee, Kansas, with Sherman's family
- Son Sherman's wife Mary was "a full blooded Indian."
