The biographical information below was copied from her FindAGrave Memorial page, created by Judy Rogers and maintained by Elizabeth Duncan.
Addie did not marry. Her father, John Philip Walker, was one of the founders and owners of Walker Brothers & Company on Davis Street in Luling.
As an adult she lived with her parents on Crockett Street in Luling and then later she lived with her sister, Bernice Ridout, and family, in Luling, Texas.
She was named in honor of her mother's sister, who was also her father's first wife.
Presumed to be the second wife of William E. Campbell from 1) Sabine County Marriage Records and 2) proximity of families. They lived nearby in Precinct 1 of Sabine County in 1910 and 1920. The marriage occured after the 1900 census, and Anna died before the 1910 census, so this can not be verified through census records.
On 22 February 1665, Col. John Walker of Rappahannock County, Virginia wrote the body of his will, naming his wife Sarah, and his daughters, Anne, Frances, Jane, Elizabeth, Sarah and Hester---all single. To his daughter Anne Walker, he gave furniture and cattle. 6 July 1668 he wrote a codicil revoking this bequest to his daughter Anne, now under sixteen and the wife of John Payne. He instead gave her a share of his land in Gloucester County.

The biographical information below was copied from her FindAGrave Memorial page, created by Judy Rogers and maintained by Elizabeth Duncan.
John Philip Walker was the fourth son born to Philip and Sarah E. Walker. He was born in Lauderdale County, Tennessee but records also indicate his birth in neighboring Haywood County.
When he was a small child the family, now with seven children, left Tennessee and settled in Guadalupe County near the San Marcos River at Prairie Lea. John P. was only twelve years old when Civil War broke out. He was too young to serve, but his three older brothers, Patrick Henry, William Byron, and James Knox, all left Texas to serve.
In 1873 he married Addie Fenner and they moved to Luling, living on S. 1st Street (now Mesquite Ave.) John P joined his brother, James K., in the mercantile business 'J.K. Walker and Brother' in Luling. They had two sons before Addie's death at an early age, in 1874.
After Addie's death, John P. and the boys lived with the Fenner family in Luling: his mother-in-law Alzedda and three of her adult children, Sarah E., Christopher and Josephine C.
In Feb 1881 John married Josephine C. Fenner. They made their home in Luling and had four children.
By 1883, a new store at the corner of Davis and Pecan became an important mercantile center for Luling and surrounding area. The store underwent changes in the following years, but ownership interest remained primarily with the Walker brothers and eventually younger nephews. Walker Bros. store still remains on Davis Street.

A Mary Wallice (sic) was enrolled in the District 6 School in Sabine County in 1854.
At the time of the 1910 census, Josephine was shown as being the mother of 11 children, 10 still living. It therefore appears she was not the mother of three children living with she and Elias at the time of the 1780 census, John (b. 1865) and Sydney Ann (b. 1867) and Felix J. (b. 1868).
At the time of the 1920 Federal census she was living with her youngest daugher and son-in-law, Minnie and Elmer Butler, in San Augustine County.
Her headstone reads: "Come ye blessed - She lived and died a Christian - Beloved - How we miss you."
Obituary follows. Copied from FamilySearch, Public Memory:
In memory of Mrs. Elias Clark, who went away, leaving us for a better world on October 24th 1930. She was born Feb. 23rd 1851. She was married to Elias Clark in 1870. To this union was born eleven children. They are: C.B. Clark, L.T. Clark, J.E. Clark, T.F. Clark, W.E. Clark, Mrs. Agnes Cole, Mrs. Minnie Butler, all of whom are still living. Bruce Clark, Mrs. Anna McLemore, Mrs. Mattie Chandler and Mrs. Ara Anderson, who preceded her in death. There were also three step-children: John Clark, who died in early life, Mrs. J.W. Craig, who is also dead, and Felix Clark, who still survives. She left eighty grandchildren and a host of great grandchildren.
She professed faith in Christ in early life and joined the missionary Baptist Church. She was a charter member the the Antioch Church, and was a faithful and devout Christian.
Dear Mother was kind and true, meeting everyone with a smile. She always bore her trials with patience. It was so hard to give her up, but God's will must be done, not ours. We know it was a joyful hour for her when she heard the Dear Savior saying: "Enter Thou into the joy of the Lord. You have been faithful over a few things and I will make thee ruler over many things."
What more can be said? We know that a life like this can mean only a self sacrifice and loving service with heart and hands. Such a life she performed, not one day but every day, striving to help everyone she could.
Funeral service was held by Eld. E.M. Gentry at Antioch Church and her body was laid to rest in Antioch Cemetery to await the resurrection.
Committee: E.J. McGown, L.H. Chandler and Cora McLemore
Note - This obituary was written in October of 1930 in memory of Mary Josephine Wallace Clark. Antioch Church is the Antioch Missionary Baptist Church in Sabine County, Texas. The cemetery is Gravel Hill Cemetery adjacent to the church property. A copy of the following poem was written below the obituary.
To that beautiful land we call heaven,
The place where we all want to be
Is a road that leads onward and upward,
And a lone weary traveler we see.
An angel is hastening to open
The pearly gates far and wide,
Bidding this pilgrim welcome,
To the joy on the other side.
Who is the traveler fair angel?
Someone's sister or brother?
Oh, no far greater than these,
'Tis someone's precious mother.
She is a mother old and gray,
And bent with the passing years,
As she toils through sunshine and shadows
And up through the vale of tears.
It has been her lot to be happy.
And then came her saddest hours.
Many a bitter weed she has plucked,
That grew in her lovely flowers.
Oh, dear tired, weary mother,
If we friends and loved ones knew
How thy loving hands have guided us,
And steered us safely through.

Sophia was listed as a one year old at the time of the 1850 Lawrence County, Mississippi census.
However, she was not listed on Schluter's 1860 transcription of the Sabine County, Texas census. Nor was she listed on Toole's 1870 transcription. She was listed as part of the household in Toole & Speight's 1880 transcription however. Why was she missing from the earlier transcriptions? Perhaps the Joseph, age 12, who was listed only in 1860 actually should have been shown as Sophie. And in 1870, perhaps she was shown as Josephin
(Research):In looking for the first husband of Mary Etta VARDEMAN, I was found the following family that was a near perfect match. The names, ages and birthplaces for Maretta, Elizabeth and Sophia match their later census listings in Sabine County, Texas. I looked at every WALLACE and WALLIS family that was indexed in Mississippi in 1850 by Ancestry.com. They were in Lawrence County, Mississippi, which is located in the southwestern portion of the state, nearby to Pike and Amite counties.

29-29
Wallis, Thomson 32 M W Farmer $50 Miss
Wallis, Maretta 29 F W Miss

I am assuming this is the correct family for the time being. More information should be gathered to either prove or disprove this assumption.

Noveda Metzger writes that "Louisa Ward b. c1838 (census) TN. In Flintville Cemetery, Lincoln County TN is a Louisa Ward d. 17 Feb 1918, no age given. Might be this one."
Noveda Metzger emailed that "Noah was in Lincoln County as early as 1820, as mentioned in the 1820 Lincoln County TN Census. A deed of conveyance from Wm. Hammock to Noah Ward for 50 acres of land was ordered to be certified Monday, January 17,1820.
He is in the 1840 Lincoln County Tn census. In the 1850 Census, sub division 2, household 807, Noah, 63, Sarah 53, Noah 17, Elizabeth 14 and Louesa are listed.
In 1868, E. C. (Erasmus Columbus) Ward, Daniel P(rice) Ward, Wm. Steed and wife Jincey Emeline, and Noah Ward, all of Lincoln County, and S. J. McLemore and wife Nancy Mary Ann (sic), and Louisa Ward of Coffee County TN vs. Defendants Wm. Ward who resided in Mississippi, James Womack and wife Elizabeth of Illinois, and Eliven Ward a non-resident in parts unknown. (Note the possible mistake of S. J. McLemore & wife Nancy Mary Ann) - later in the petition "about the year 1854 Noah Ward ---departed this life intestate----his only heirs at law: E. C. Ward, Daniel P. Ward, Jincey Emeline who intermarried with Wm. Steed, Noah Ward, Margaret J. who intermarried with S. J. McLamore, Nancy Mary Ann who intermarried with Albert Speck, Louisa Ward, William Ward, Elizabeth who intermarried with James Wommack and Eleven Ward.
Sarah, Noah's wife is in the 1860 Coffee County TN (Tullahoma) census, household 900 with Louisa and possibly the same again in household 988 - again with Louisa, but a William Moore, 73, b. KY is with them."

Noveda Metzger writes that "Noah C. Ward, b. c1833 (census) Lincoln County, died after 1854 and before 1868 (think it was probably closer to 1854, but haven't found a gravesite). He married Anna Brown on 29 November 1854 in Lincoln County."
Martha Hunt emailed, in February 2012, that ": Richard Ward's parents were Richard Ward,Sr. and Ann Nelms Ward (b. 1756). After Richard Ward, Sr., died Ann Nelms Ward married George C. Booth, Sr. They moved to Rutherford County, Tennessee.
Richard and Elizabeth Ward remained in Franklin County, NC and lived on the land that Abraham McLemore gave them shortly after their marriage."
Sherry Butler Ward emailed, in October 2013, that they were the parents of Ben Ward of Hallsville, Texas. Her husband, Nathan Carter Ward, is a direct descendant of this family.
Noveda Metzger writes that "William C. Ward, b. c1841 Lincoln Co. TN. [There are two William C's and both married Sarah's, both born c1841. If I can ever get them sorted out I will be happy!!!! The second William C. is William Carrel Ward, son of Daniel Price - above. Think this one went to Scott County AR (Boles)."
