Brief Life History,
His will lists Lyn as executor, 3 youngest daughters Polly Watson, Amelia Hudson and Rebecca Hudson, 7 children total.
He was most definitely from Ireland. His arrival, shown following, at age 12 in 1765 would make his birth year 1753. His gravestone says 1750, but birth dates were often off by a few years on old cenuses.
Just bacause there was a Samual Walker in Rhode Island does not mean it's the correct person.

Brief Life History,
There is no valid proof that her last name was Green. The Revolutionary War Gravestone was not applied for until 1942 and does NOT list wife's name. There were probably hundreds of women named Phebe Green and even more Samuel Walkers. The only real sources that can be used are the gravestone and Samuel's will.
