**Marker missing**
(near Enos M Walker)
10/11. Enos W Walker is supposed by most researchers to be synonymous with the Enos Walker born in England in 1845.
He served in the Civil War in the NY 76th Regiment. He married Mary Margaret Berry in 1871 and they had three children before she passed away in 1882. Enos also outlived all three of their children.

Enos next married Emma Catherine Bates around 1886 and had Roy Willington Walker. Enos died 1912 of fractured ribs at age 66 and is buried in Western Heights Cemetery with no known marker or burial location. His son Julian P, daughter-in-law Sadie Ruth and grandchildren Ruth and Enos M Walker are all buried in a north-south line in the central left section of the cemetery, and Enos W Walker may be buried nearby.


Bio from Western Heights Cemetery:

Born 1846
Died 1912 in Dallas (aged 66)

A veteran of the Civil War, Walker enlisted with the Union Army’s 76th New York Infantry Regiment in 1863. He was later reassigned to Company D of the 147th New York Volunteers, which participated in the Siege of Petersburg, Virginia, a major battle in the campaign to take the capital of Richmond.

He married Mary Margaret Berry in 1871 and they had three children before she died in 1882. Two of the children died young and the third, Julian, moved to Dallas in 1896 with his wife Mamie Canifax (or Cannefox). Walker married Emma Catherine Bates in 1886 and they had a son, Roy Willington Walker. He died in Dallas in 1912 of fractured ribs at the age of 66, outliving his first wife and all three of their children. Unfortunately we have no known marker or burial location for Walker. His son Julian (who died in 1900), daughter-in-law Sadie Ruth (married to Roy Willington Walker), and grandchildren Ruth and Enos M Walker are all buried in a north-south line in the central left section of the cemetery, and Enos W Walker may be buried nearby.
