Elizabeth, the wife of Edward Walton, Jr. of New Kent, died on 5 April 1717, her death recorded at St. Peter’s Parish. There is no source for her origins, and in secondary sources she’s been seen as either the daughter of Lemuel Mason, Jr. & Mary Mason or of a generation earlier, as the daughter of Col. Lemuel Mason & Ann Mason
Geni’s profile has expressed the uncertain placement before, but it’s time to detach her, and acknowledge that it is likely she was never a Mason at.
There seems to be recent (2013) book for the Waltons: Waltons of Old Virginia and Sketches of Families in Central Virginia, by Wilmer L. Kerns.
