Buchanan Country History-William N. Walton, the subject of this sketch, was born on March 28, 1852, near Troy Mills, in Linn County, Iowa, where he resided until 1872, when he moved to Newton Township and rented a farm until the spring of 1880, although he had bought the farm and he now lives on excellent land, also twenty acres of timber.
