Individual Details

Anna was the daughter of John Babb and Media Brown. There is a problem with the date of the marriage seen as 9 Jun 1824 because the cemetery records of Elizabeth Ball Walters state that she died 1 Sept 1824. William could hardly have married another wife before the first had died. Descendants of this line state that they married in 1825 - much more likely.

Records compiled by Dora Walters Latham, daughter of John Henry Walters, son of Henry Babb Walters, son of William Walters gives this information in her research for membership in DAR:
William Walters married Anna Babb in March, 1825, in Henry County TN. Anna Babb was the 3rd child of John Babb and Media Brown. She resided on a farm granted to her father for services in the Revolutionary War. According to the 1850 and 1860 census, Anna Babb Walters was born ca 1782 in North Carolina. She is buried in the Walters Cemetery near Manleyville.

1850 Census, Henry Co TN Henry B. Walters, age 24. Ann, age 61, b. North Carolina lives with his family.

1860 Census, Henry Co TN, District 7, p.381, Household 660
Henry B. Walters household includes Anne, age 73, b. NC.

Anna Babb Walters grave marker says she was 92 years old in 1874. This would indicate a birth year of 1782. The 1850 census indicated she was born in 1789; perhaps her age in 1850 was 67 rather than 61.
