Portrait photograph of Miss Mary Beall Walton wearing a long faux pearl necklace and shown in profile. Miss Mary Beall Walton was a popular kindergarten and primary grade teacher in the Woodstock public schools during the 1910’s and 1920’s. She never married. Her father was Morgan Lauck Walton, Sr. (1853-1935), a prominent Woodstock lawyer. Her mother was Mary Alice (March) Walton (1853-1928). She was one of seven children and grew up on North Muhlenburg Street, in a large home that came to be called “The Walton House” and later, became the National Headquarters of the Tri Sigma Sorority. Miss Walton attended Randolph and Macon Women’s College in Lynchburg where she was trained to teach kindergarten. The 1908 yearbook included her in the “Special Class” where she was a member of the Jefferson Literary Society, the Virginia Club, and the Tri Sigma Sorority. The Shenandoah Herald newspaper published a short article about her on June 25, 1920. She had been teaching kindergarten in Woodstock for eight years by then. The article highlighted her upcoming course in “Primary Work” at the State Normal School in Harrisonburg. With that added training, she was poised to take on her new position as a teacher of the primary grades in the Woodstock school. Years later, in the fall of 1937, she and her older sister, Mabel Lee Walton, moved to Clermont, Lake County, Florida, where another sister, Emily (Walton) Holloway, lived with her husband and son.
Identified by Elizabeth Dalke Sollenberger who knew her as a child and remembered her as a kindergarten teacher.
