Married Mary Frances THOMPSON, daughter of Thomas THOMPSON and Elizabeth Ann O'DANIEL. Mary was born 3 October 1850 in Arkansas, and died in Williamson County Texas 12 April 1914. Both James and Mary WALDEN are buried in Walden's Cemetery. Per descendants, James Alexander WALDEN bought his farm from JA CHAPMAN, and part of that farm contained Pond Springs Cemetery. The Walden Family then designated a (large enclosed) portion of the cemetery for their family plot, and descendants have maintained it to this day, giving the appearance of a "cemetery within a cemetery".
