About 1734 he moved to Virginia, settling in Orange County in the area that later became Culpeper Co. He married Catherine Clore about 1735. Catherine was the daughter of Michael Clore, one of the immigrants of the Second Germanna Colony of 1717. She died probably about 1745. According to the memoir of his daughter Catharina Walk Frey, Martin remarried in Virginia, and moved to North Carolina around 1750, settling in the vicinity of Abbotts Creek, Rowan County. There is good documentation for a wife Catherine Gerhardt, who signed deeds with him in Rowan County in the 1760s, but there is also an indication that he married her in Rowan Co. about 1757. Was there another wife yet, who came to NC with him but then died before 1757? Elke Hall and I think there may have been. Elke is working on this question now. <P> <HR> <H4>Second Generation</H4> <B>Children of Martin Walk and Catherine Clore</B><BR> Barbara Walk (1735-1815) m.

However, there is not time for another birth between Barbara and Martin, and barely enough between Martin and Catharina; the interval is too short for the usual natural child spacing seen in this era. I suspect that he may in fact have been the last child, born after Catharina, since Catharina states that her mother died "in my sixth year", i.e. about 1745, which would allow ample time for additional births after hers. Few records refer to Solomon in NC, but there are some other Walk individuals who can't be accounted for as descendants of Martin Jr. and might be supposed to be from Solomon's line.<P> <HR> <H4>Third Generation</H4> <B>Children of Martin Walk and Liesel Fiscus</B><BR> Johannes Walk (b. & d. 1769)<BR> Johanna (Hannah) Walk (1772-1852) m. 1)<a href="mock.html"> Philip Mock </a>(1752-?), 2) John Gladfelder<BR> Johann Joseph Alexander Walk (1773-1839) m.
