John (0Dad) Walden of Virginia (Conjecture)
Alexander Walden of Greene Co GA was born in 1748 in Goochland Co VA. The search for Alexander's father leads us to either a John or a Richard Walden who were cited in the 1747 Goochland Tax List.
John Walden was born in about 1720 in Virginia. The first record for John is a 1742 court case. And, the last record is the 1747 Goochland Co VA Tax List. Nothing more is known about John at this time.
