On these pages you will find a lot of research and information that I have accumulated since my quest of the Wall tree began in 1995.
My name is Leslie and my husband's name is Jack. This is his family tree. My interest began in 1995 when we visited one of Jack's Aunts in Missouri. Jack had been adopted at the age of 3 and never really knew anything about his father or his father's side of the family, so Aunt Dorcas began telling us and I really became interested in finding more, so the search began.

We found the family came from Germany and the first to arrive was John Wahl, in 1737, followed a year later by his brother Adam, and later, their brother and sister, Conrad and Apfel. At time of arrival their named changed from Wahl to Wall.

They all settled in Virginia originally with some of the family moving to Missouri some years later.
This photo is of the family of James "Black Jim" Wall who made their home in Missouri. You will read more of them as you go through our pages.

If you click on the photo, it will take you to a larger version that has all the names on the photo.



I would very much like to thank all the family members, cousins and online friends who have helped me so much with this research and filling in lots of branches.
We are constantly looking for more branches so if you think you belong to our tree, please don't hesitate to let us know in our guestbook.

We hope you enjoy your visit and even better, find a connection!
