Col. James David (J.D.) Walker was the commander of 4th Ar. Regt. AST. He was also the one who became a U.S. Senator. I have never heard
any family stories of him ever being captured. After the battle of Wison's creek they disbanded the regt. He and his family moved to Corsicana Tx.
and they stayed there until after the war. The rest of the Walker clan stayed in the CSA.
