      Excerpt re Walter's parents from a bio of the C. A. Lawler Family
      http://www.tomatocapital.com/people/lawler-ca.html

      Mr. Lawler's oldest sister, Mattie Lawler Allen, and her husband, Ben Allen, were among the first settlers in old Jacksonville. They later moved to Athens and opened a boarding school, which Mr. Lawler attended before moving to Jacksonville. It was through their influence that he decided to make Jacksonville his home.
