Collection includes material of the Walker family, early settlers in Talladega County, Alabama. The bulk of the material is antebellum, but the financial items date to the 1890's. Besides correspondence between 1846 and 1852 (primarily letters to Rosa Conrad Walker) the collection consists of financial papers, legal items, tax assessments and receipts, miscellaneous items such as poetry and a cloth bag, and several Civil War items, specifically a parole and pardon.
