  William Walker Terry was named after his grandfather of the same name, who was the son of Lewis Terry and Namcy Constance, whose maiden name is undocumented.  This handed-down middle name of Walker in Connie's grandson and later descendants is good secondary evidence that her maiden name was Walker.  This is a common naming pattern in many lineages.
  
  This William Walker also named his son Wlilliam Walker.  William Walker Jr (Bil) contacted me about this name in his heritage.
  
  "My great grandfather was William Walker Terry,  I’m named after him.  William Terry moved with the Wells family from Texas to Douglas AZ.  You can find information regarding his side of the family at Wellsgazette.com.  There is a family grave yard outside of Douglas.  William Terry [the original William Walker Terry, son of Nancy Connie and Lewis Terry] and my grandfather Reuben are both buried there."
