    Does anyone know of William Walker Horner who attended the Xenia Friend's Church? He passed away in 1946?

    the above link takes you to the just released 1940 CENSUS. This particular page of District 29-30 OHIO, lists Walker Horner, 216 South King St. He's my Greatgrandfather on my father's side of the family. You will note "4" as the number in the house. That would be, my greatgrandfather, my father, my mother, and "little ole me" at 2 yrs old.
