Morgan W. Walker, Sr.
Morgan Wailes Walker, Sr. (August 20, 1893 – February 20, 1983), was a businessman from Alexandria, Louisiana, who was involved in dairying, farming, bus transportation, hotels, banking, and education.
Walker was a director of the Trans-Continental Bus system, which operated in time in more than forty states. Walker introduced Guernsey cattle into Louisiana as the founder of Cloverland Dairies. He was a past president and founder of Roemer Dairy Processing. He was chairman of the former Guaranty Bank and Trust Company of Alexandria. Walker served on the Louisiana State Mineral Board during the administration of Governor Jimmie Davis.
==Background==
Walker was born in Dodson in Winn Parish to Ezriah Walker and the former Frances Marian Stovall. When he was nine years of age, young Morgan stepped on a thorn, which resulted in persistent pain in a lower leg. At the age of eighteen, he had the leg amputated at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, but the problem persisted as "phantom pain", later believed to have been caused by a pinched nerve. Walker swore that he would not allow his disability to hold him back from success in life.〔http://longrootshighbranches.blogspot.com/2006/08/morgan-wailes-walker.html〕
He graduated from both Dodson High School and Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, where he procured a degree in business. He was a classmate of future Governor Earl Kemp Long of Winnfield〔''The Winn Parish Enterprise News'', February 23, 1983〕 though he was part of the anti-Long faction in Louisiana's then all-encompassing Democratic politics.
