By 1880, Maggie moved west with her parents Absolom and Nancy Walker and family from Towns, Georgia, where they became part of the "Georgia Colony" of transplanted placer miners in Huerfano County, Colorado.

According to McLemore family researchers, there was an 1886 newspaper story that James McLemore was "lost in a blizzard with his wife and child", but according to my written family lore, he ran off with another woman to Mexico "to teach", leaving behind his two sons: Oliver and his little brother Fred, who died at age 14 of rheumatic fever. Oliver McLemore Walker (b. 24 May 1884 La Veta, Huerfano Co., Colorado; d. abt. 1928 of drowning in a river via a logging accident in British Columbia. No body recovered for burial.) Frederick "Fred" McLemore Walker (b. 1886 La Veta, Huerfano Co., CO, USA, d. 1900 Hayden, Routt County, Colorado, United States of America) - died of rheumatic fever; his Find A Grave memorial link below. Absolom legally adopted the two boys and gave them his Walker surname after James left them in order for his daughter to be declared legally free to remarry, which she did to George Boone. Oliver went north to British Columbia.
