Samuel Walker (soldier)
Samuel Walker (October 19, 1822 – February 6, 1893) was an American lawman and politician from Franklin County, Pennsylvania, who served as officer during Bleeding Kansas and the American Civil War.
==Early life==
Samuel Walker was born on October 19, 1822, in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. After marrying Marian E. Lowe in 1842, Walker moved to Ohio in 1848, and worked there as a cabinet maker. In 1855, Samuel then settled permanently in Lawrence, Kansas. There he became a founding member of the Bloomington Guards, a local Militia Company, in late 1855; and he quickly was elected first sergeant. In the following year he was elected the colonel of the 4th Kansas Cavalry, which participated in all the campaigns of the free-state men during Bleeding Kansas. In that capacity he was present at the sieges of Lawrence and Fort Saunders, and commanded free-state forces on August 16, 1856, at the Battle of Fort Titus, which was a free-state victory. In 1856 Walker served as a member of the short-lived Territorial House of Representatives under the Topeka Constitution; around the same time he also was a Deputy U.S. Marshal. He also became the Sheriff of Douglas County, Kansas in October, 1857 and served in this capacity until January, 1862.
