I have an elderly neighbor ....Mrs. Walker ...who is age 95. She recently became ill and was told that her colon cancer was back. On her death bed for two months. Then... She got up and said that she needed to walk! Day after day she became stronger. Today she is back to her usual daily activities and doing well. Strong people those Walkers!
Hi Im from Australia and I have a big family of 1 boy and 7 girls living And 2 babys deceased. I just happened to Start watching about the Walker sisters which I founcomfit in the story especially today because my sister is in hospital and she is passing away as I write this and I can't get to her we have only lost our father and that was hard and now it's the oldest sister my big sister who introduced me to music and I was 4 when she introduced barbra Streisands music and we grew up poor but we had each other and soooooooo many memories so thank you for this story and introducing me to the Walker sisters ❤
May you find more comfort than sadness in the sad days ahead as you remember the times you enjoyed together. Your sister would probably prefer to be remembered with those tender and maybe even funny memories than sad ones. May God bless you and comfort you with His presence.
Well my parents were not quite as prolific , with only 5 children, of which I am the oldest. We also grew up poor but we didnt really know it, until we were older, and by then we didn't care. Between us all working together, we got by, and thats the way it still is. I am so sorry you are losing your oldest sister. I am 11 years older than my little brother, but we are best friends all of us. Growing up poor makes for close families, and bonds that never break in my opinion. It builds character and stops a person from being self absorbed, because there is seldom time to think of yourself! lol. I have often thought I am the oldest, good I will pass away first, but we both know life is full of surprises as is death. I find great comfort in my faith and knowing I will see my loved ones in heaven. I hope you have that comfort as well. We also lost our Dad several years back, and my mom lives with me now, and is getting older. I wish you well my friend, on the other side of this beautiful blue marble. God bless, keep and comfort you all ~ from dawn in the US
Thank you sooo much everyone for your kind words and I also love hearing about other people and their families. And it just shows how it doesn't matter where your from we all experience loss and it all hurts the same no matter what skin colour you are or what country your from or what age you are . I've had a nde so I know how happy she will be because she's home 😉😊🥰
A blessing on your hills and their beauty, and thank you for the history lesson! Apropo of nothing, I found out as a teen that one Charles Townsend, an ancestor citizen of the Commonwealth of Virginia, was hung as a traitor during the War of Independence. All the other Townsends at the time were saying, 'Sit down and Shutupshutupshup, stop defending the king!' But would he listen? Nooooo.
My mom was from Appalachia. I grew up going there and just recently had to sell the last bit of land in the holler to fund my eldest daughter's legal education at Cambridge. She will practice in America and we are DARs. Thank you for showing the beautiful nature of these mountains. The people. My family paved the way for her. She won't forget her heritage.
The walker family were on my mother's side of the family five brother one sister in Nottingham England they were bomber pilots in the war there sister died in the war they are all buried in stoke on Trent in the church yard and my dear aunt just passed away too god bless them
My great grandparents also got a lifetime lease at their home place in the Shenandoah National Park because they had several disabled children until their home got burned down from what was speculated by jealous or revenge full neighbors. It is so much fun to learn about our people who came before us.
You and I must be cousins. I found many of the same people in my tree. I was adopted at birth, since did my DNA, found my birth mother in TN. at my age of 60.
As a Canadian you should have seen how surprised I was to learn I had 2 Mayflower ancestors and my wife has 1 Mayflower ancestor. Ancestry can be an eye opener.
My family came over then too, and were Loyalists during the US Revolutionary War. When they lost the war, they were exported north and the British government gave them land in whats now Ontario. You're likely to be qualified to become a United Empire Loyalist (UEL). 😊❤
@HLBear I have a lot of Loyalist ancestors who settled in the Kingston region of Ontario. Honestly I just need to get all my documentation together and pay the fee.
Such resilient, strong ladies! They are definitely a legend to continue. You're sadly right Leo, family doesn't mean what it used to. As always, thank you for the breathtaking views!
I just happen to cross your story on the Walker sisters and thoroughly enjoyed it. It reminded me so much of my grandfather‘s family in Brandon Mississippi. without history like this, our children will never know the hardships of people in the past and how easy they have it today. Keep up the good work.
My mom was born in NYC, raised in Germany during the Great depression and WWII, helped Jews and American soldiers get out of Germany, went to a displaced person camp that was in bad shape, got typhoid fever, went to US Army hospital in Paris, learned French, made it 🏠 to the US, learned English, and graduated from high school, all by the time she was 18. She grew up in a village in Germany where she herded goats and tended the garden, like many southern people did here.
I absolutely value family. The family I grew up with and the family I raised and now my grandchildren. My husband and I have been married for 42 years. We are very much part of our grandchildren's lives, just as my grandparents were part of mine! The journey has been wonderful!
What a wonderful story of these sisters. I can only imagine what their conversations were as they tilled the land and sat down for dinner. ❤❤❤ God bless them.
I had a branch of my family (Morgans) who married into the Walker line. They were also from Tenn, but lived in Kentucky when I was young. 2 of the sisters, were also spinsters. One of them came up to Cincinnati, around the time of the depression, to work for the Gibson Greeting Card Co. She worked for them for many years, until she retired, and went back to their family home to live with her sister... Their names were Nellie, and Stellie... I always heard their names said in that order, and always together...😊
My grandmother of Minnesota had sisters. She was named Jesse. Her older sisters names were Tessie, and Betsy. When I got a toy rabbit for Easter, I named it Tessie Betsy Johnson, after her siblings.
This is an amazing peaceful place that we had the honor of visiting. Standing on that porch is a magical experience. One I surely will never forget. Y'all honored them beautifully!
As A Damn Yankee From The Great Lake State Of Michigan I Absolutely Loved This Beautiful Story About The Walker Sister's BIG-TIME!!! Shalom And Amen!✝️✝️🛐🛐📛🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🤰🤱🧬🤰🤱✨👑✨🦁🦁🦁❣️❣️❣️🌺🌺🌺😇🌟🤗🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇱♾️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🦅🗽‼️
I have a sincere question. I am a Southerner and “damn Yankees” is still heard down on the Gulf Coast. Sometimes in jest, sometimes not. So…is there a term y’all use for Southerners who might wind up in your neck of the woods? 🤔🤔👋🏻👋🏻
I love hearing about the family tree of people. Amazing you have went back to the Royals. 🎉 Our research has shown Clark Gable, William Jennings Bryan and Frank & Wyatt Earp. 😂 Crazy!
Hello from wheeling West Virginia a fellow lady hillbilly mountaineer...I'm related to Alfred Hitchcock so crazy right love your stories and enjoy watching hugs loves and many blessings
That is so interesting, even now, at 58, loving watching Alfred Hitchcock Movies. Always appreciated his work. It’s been so many years yet now I got some time I love his work. 👍🌻
Thank you for sharing that was such a sweet story about some sisters who stayed all together and helped each other and tell their passing thank you so much for sharing I loved it
What a beautiful story of these sisters and the whole Walker family. The scenery is magnificent as you say. Thanks for sharing a story with a voice that seems made for telling a story.
Thank you Leo, I was captivated by your story but also by the way you told it. You have such a calming relaxed way about you. I’m from Australia and my family and I visited the Great Smoky Mountains back in the 90’s. We loved it very much and have great memories of the area. I’d so love to visit again. I’ll watch out for more of your stories. ❤🇦🇺
VERY cool story. My grandpa was born 1882 and passed in 59', 6 years before I was born. I WISH I could have heard him tell stories about anything. Dad was born in 38', I need to record him on a cassette tape. I have one of my grandmother talking with one of my aunts, I remember her, she was born in 1897. I remember all the card games that got played at the kitchen table on Friday nights LOL. One time they dealt her a royal straight flush while she was using the powder room, the look on her face was hilarious, the laughter that caused. A very fond memory.
I just came across you channel. Great job on the sisters story. I look forward to watching more of your videos. I appreciate this type of education. It is truly amazing. Thank you. Ps: I subscribed
I found out by doing Ancestry DNA that I am a decendent of the founders of Dickenson County Virginia where the mother was from. Thanks for sharing this story.
This is a beautiful story of what should still be done today. Togetherness, living of the land, and no technology should be taught and utilized to serve in the upcoming future. We all are going to need this to serve.
👋 hi from North Alabama 👋 love that view before the fork, reminds me of growing up in Bankhead😢 anyway new subscriber can't wait to listen to your stories! 💚
Leo, one of my favorite places to go when I lived in Oak Ridge, Tn. in the late 70’s was Cades Cove there past Townsend and Gatlinberg and Sevierville. I loved it out there. I’m from here in Missouri Ozark mountains and also can’t live anywhere where it’s flat! I’m like you! I love this history. The cabins are still in Cades Cove!!
Imagine living in a time when you had to wait until season to have another fresh picked apple or peach. Though you didn't have the convinces of year around fresh picked foods, you did have many more things to look forward to in the different seasons. As minuscule of a pleasure as it seems to us today was likely a grand delight when the season came back around.
I live in the maritimes in Canada ❤ Very interesting story about the sisters. I love your videos and all the stories. Your little giggle always makes me smile. Keep the videos coming :)
I love your stories. I moved from Ohio to West Virginia in the 9th grade through college. Some of the best years of my life. I miss the mountains and its people.
Jacob Blair II and Margaret Walker are my 5th great grandparents. I stumbled on this by accident and am going to share this with all the Blair family in Washington state ! Thank you, what a great story of our history!
I live in East TN and have heard about these ladies all my adult life. Thank you for the brief presentation of this sweet country family. I hope to visit that cabin one day.
Leo and Heather, what a wonderful story! I 😢just love hearing these documentaries you tell us. Thank you to the lady who brought this your attention. Take care until we meet here again!!😊
What a beautiful story, and told so beautifully as well. You have a very soothing voice, and thank you for this sweet story. Amazing family, they accomplished so much!
Seems like the teachers didn’t pressure the kids to learn more then they could handle back then. Life seem so much harder but kinder then today. Love listening to this story. Thank you! ❤
What a beautiful story and so respectfully told. Beautiful. Gone are the days of what family means and your so right. Times were so different. Thank you
Beautiful story, Sir Leo! Wish I'd been around to meet the sisters. I'll definitely want to visit the old homestead, if nothing more than to breathe the same air that they thrived on, to feel nature as they did. ❤
Omg 😂.. when Leo said..hey girls how u doing.. I was like who n the heck he talkin too 😆.. I was looking trying see where the women were.. ohhh Lord lol.. good one Leo..gosh it would be so awesome be out there.. thanks for sharin..
I will be visiting their house in the Smoky Mountains tomorrow. The National Park protects it very well. A cemetery at the Sugarlands Visitor Center has a lot of field stone marked graves that are easy to get to but it's peaceful
Beautiful country, and a great story. It is great that the government allowed the sisters to live out their lives there. May they all rest in peace 🙏 Thank you very much Leo and Heather, this was a great video. 😊
I have an elderly neighbor ....Mrs. Walker ...who is age 95.
She recently became ill and was told that her colon cancer was back.
On her death bed for two months.
Then...
She got up and said that she needed to walk!
Day after day she became stronger.
Today she is back to her usual daily activities and doing well.
Strong people those Walkers!
Praise God, prayers for her❤
I am a Walker born and bred,and yes we are strong people.
Wow, 😁😁, that is beautiful🌻🌻🌻
My grandmother who we called Tyanne *pronounced tiny" lived to be 102! My other 98. Amazing women both!
Inspiring. Thank you!
These are my Great Aunts ❤ Thank you for telling their story!
My great grandmother, also a Walker, was their cousin. Those ladies had grit.

I wouldn't have sold that last bit of land to send my daughter to college much less the moon..
@@PlatinumIrishrose Her daughter's education was more important than that land.
@@PlatinumIrishrose you sound like not so great of a parent, then.
I’d never sell land. Not ever. There’s other ways to get educated. You’ll never get the land back.
I just imagine how safe they felt together especially getting into those big old beds and talking through the night - love your work guys xxx
I never tire of the Walker sisters &.their family. I wish I could have met & talked with them. Thank you for paying tribute to this wonderful family
The Walker sisters remind me of my own grandmaw.....
May they all rest in eternal peace 🙏
The walker family were on my mother's side of the family five brother one sister in Nottingham England they were bomber pilots in the war there sister died in the war they are all buried in stoke on Trent in the church yard and my dear aunt just passed away too god bless them

My Great Granny was born in Tennessee . She was a Fowler. These women were amazing.
My grandmother married a Fowler. We are in WV
I loved, loved, loved walking up to the cabin, rounding the last bend, and being greeted by the springhouse. Beautifull place!
My mom was born in NYC, raised in Germany during the Great depression and WWII, helped Jews and American soldiers get out of Germany, went to a displaced person camp that was in bad shape, got typhoid fever, went to US Army hospital in Paris, learned French, made it 🏠 to the US, learned English, and graduated from high school, all by the time she was 18.
