Barbara, please contact.... -- Doon, 23:06:15 06/05/08 Thu [1]
Brenda, I don't know if this was done intentionally or not. I haven't been warned in any way that I've done anything to offend anyone, but at my normal server I can no longer access this website. Would you please check to see if this isn't some kind of technological glitch and mail me at metronome2006@yahoo.com. If I have offended someone, please tel me what I've done to be deserving of being banned without explanation. I posted information from ghostwriter about a new family oriented forum and I see that his post has been taken down

Episode Question -- Forrest, 08:23:43 05/09/08 Fri [5]
Can someone help me here? Does anyone know the name of the episode where John Boy and John are sitting outside and John Boy is about to leave home and he says, "Daddy, I sure could use some of your advice now as I am about to leave." John replies with, "Son, don't ever be in debt with another man, treat another man fairly, and remember that you are my son." It has been driving me crazy trying to find this episode.

Why did they kill off Mary Ellen's husband? -- Samantha, 21:35:52 05/07/08 Wed [16]
I watched the episode where Mary Ellen's husband, Curt is killed at Pearl Harbor. I got to wondering if anyone knows why they killed his character off instead of keeping him on the series.

Good episodes from Season 7 -- Nancy in VA, 06:20:09 05/01/08 Thu [5]
When the show was originally on, I began to lose interest once Grandpa had died, and then Olivia left. But last night watching the episode "The Moonshiner", I was so touched by the character of Boone. I'd forgotten that episode, and how they really fleshed out the character of Boone in this one. It was quite sweet. Also, I watched "The Empty Nest" the other night and I DO remember that one. The end is so bittersweet because we know that Grandpa is really gone.....the character, and Will Geer. It always chokes me up.

What happened to Olivia Walton? -- Kathy Taylor (Info about Olivia Walton), 19:36:04 05/05/08 Mon [5]
I'm looking for information on Olivia Walton. I grew up watching the Waltons and I often wonder after hearing rumors Olivia did really did get TB during the making of the Waltons and later passed away from TB after the Waltons were done filming. Is this true? Did she get TB and later pass away? Or maybe by chance she is still living? I loved Olivia Walton, she was such a wonderful mother. I admire her still to this day! I can't wait untill Season 8 & 9!

Cynthia in Virginia wanted you all to know this.... -- Karen, 14:31:50 04/18/08 Fri [15]
Many of you met Cynthia and Gary at the California Waltons reunion a few months ago. Gary took lots of pictures of the fans and castmembers there. Cynthia and Gary received a phone call at 2:30 this morning from Gary's step-mom saying that his dad had passed away from heart problems. Cynthia and Gary are in quite a state of shock and travelling today. She asks that everyone please pray for them as this is very hard. Her husband Gary is especially hurting. Please pray for Cynthia, Gary and Gary's family as they go through this difficult time.

G W's death. David W Harper -- David McGill, 21:21:04 04/27/08 Sun [10]
I watched the episode last week I think it was where G W got killed in a training accident. It takes a lot to bring tears to my eyes by watching something on TV but this episode did.
I was wondering if one of the Walton boys was killed in the war before the series ended?
I also wanted to make a comment about David Harper. His Character as Jim Bob reminds me so much of myself growing up in rural souther Indiana. He was a good hearted kid who liked to tinker with old cars and loved airplanes. I am from a family of six children and I am the youngest and I have tinkered with old cars all my life and still do. I know that David Harper likes to keep a low profile which is fine but I don't seem to notice anybody asking very many questions about him. He is my favorite character because he reminds me so much of myself growing up. We were very much alike as his character of Jim Bob. I would fight with my older brother and argue with my older sisters but it always worked out. His personality was a little different from the rest of the kids and so is mine. I also think he was a very good actor. Of cours all of the characters were very good actors. If anybody has some information on him let me know. I'm pretty sure he was'nt the one that got killed or taken as a prisoner of war but if I remember right on of the boys was. Which one was it? Thanks.

Walton Family Tree -- John Viens, 22:50:40 04/20/08 Sun [18]
You know, in light of all the posts lately about Grandpa
and his folks, I was thinking about their family and for fun
I wrote down what I think would have been somewhat of a family tree of The Waltons. Now, I got this info from what I remember from various episodes where they mention the family and I kind of filled in gaps with assumptions. Here it goes. The first Waltons on the mountain were Rome and Rebecca Lee Walton. Rome Walton came and settled what came to be known as Waltons Mountain in 1789. He brought with him, an ax, a mule, a plow and a rifle. He cleared his land for planting in the Spring of 1796 and went all the way to Buckingham County to get a gurnsey cow to put on it. Sometime that Spring he married Rebecca Lee and brought her there to settle on the mountain. They had at least two sons, one being Samuel Walton, the father of Zeb and the other, the father of Zadoc Walton. Rome and Rebecca Lee raised their children on Waltons Mountain and the family flourished. The work was hard but the evenings were spent with Rome serenading the family with tunes on his fiddle. His favorite tune was Razin the Bow. He would teach this to his young grandson Zadoc, who would inherit not only Rome's love of music, but also his treasured fiddle. Zadoc would one day pass this treasure on to his cousin Zeb's grandson Jason Walton, who shared in the Walton musical talent.

Samuel Walton grew up and married Zula Tyler. They settled on Waltons Mountain and they had at least six children. First was Henry in 1841, then their came sons, Ben, Charlie, Matt and Zebulon Tyler. They also had a daughter Melissa, that Zeb mentions to Jason in a later episode. The name Tyler is mentioned several times in the series, including the episode The Pony Cart, where Martha Corrine mentions the Tylers. Zeb was the youngest in his family. He was a full twenty years younger than his brother Henry. All the Walton sons grew up and inherited their piece of The Mountain. Not all of them stayed there though.

Henry fought for the Army of Virginia in the War between the States. He came home and married Martha Corrine Tyler, a cousin on his mother's side. They settled up on Blue Rock Creek. They had two sons, Boone, born the same year as Henry's baby brother Zeb, 1862 and a baby boy, named Henry who died in infancy. Henry Walton died in 1921 at the age of 81. His widow Martha Corrine and his grown son Boone continued to live on Blue Rock Creek Boone married and had a son. There was a flood and Boone lost his son and daughter in law. They raised their grandson Wade after that. Henry Walton's family was forced to move from Blue Rock Creek in 1934, after the Government confiscated their land for the Blue Ridge Parkway. Martha Corrine Tyler-Walton spent the remainder of her years in Brightwood. Martha Corrine died in 1939 at the age of 91.

As for the other Walton brothers, Ben married and moved to Goochland County and it is said, had a large family. Charlie Walton stayed on the mountain but no real mention is made of him except in the episode The Deed, when Zeb talks about Uncle Charlie meeting up with a bear. Matt Walton married and had a daugher Cora, who grew up and married Hamilton Denbee. They had a son, Job and spent many years in Kansas, moving back to Virginia during the Dust Bowl years. They attemtpted to settle on Waltons MOuntain again but ended up going on to New York and farming the Mowhawk Valley after learning that Matt Walton had sold his land to his brother Zeb.

Zebulon Tyler Walton was the youngest son.
He stayed on Waltons Mountain, married a young girl they called Sissy Morgan. Sissy came from a very proper family with a strict Baptist up bringing, which was quite a contrast to Zeb's footloose and boistrous personality. She would pretend to scold but Sissy or Esther which was her Christian name, loved him for it. Even as a young couple, Esther took to calling Zeb " The Ol Fool", which had love in every syllable. Zeb and Esther married in 1883, when Zeb was 21 and Esther 17. Esther had wanted to be a seamstress and open her own dress shop but she gave that up to stay with Zeb on the mountain. Their first home was the log cabin on the mountain where Zeb had been rasied. They took care of Zeb's folks in their later years.

At some point, Zeb and Esther built their own home at the foot of the mountain. It was a big white two story house and they built it with their own hands. For several years it didn't seem as Zeb and Esther would be blessed with children even though both had hoped for a large family. But
finally, in about 1889, their first son Benjamin was born.
They ware over joyed. About two years later, they had another baby but it died at birth. The third and last child of Zeb and Esther Walton was a son born in 1897. They named him John. John would share his father's love of the land and would spend his life on Waltons Mountain.

To be continued..........

Has anyone noticed in today's episode, "The Children's Carol," that in the final scene at the airport, one can see in the distance 1970's style automobiles passing by? Funny the cameraman didn't catch it.
