      John Walls was born in 1795 and his wife's name was Anne Woolds (Walls); she was born in 1799. They met and married in Virginia, later settling in Powell, Tennessee, in the late 1830s. Later they decided that they didn't want to make their home there, making their way westward, they came down to what is now Coalfield. They settled here and built a log cabin where they raised their family.
