Walker Homestead
Placerita Canyon

[WALKER / STARBUCK INDEX]

Hortense Walker and her daughter, Irene, pose in front of the old Walker homestead in Placerita Canyon. According to George Starbuck, the home was built in about 1909 and burned down around 1918. The Walkers then moved to another cabin on the Walker Ranch, much of which is now the county-run Placerita Canyon Nature Center property.
