	William Walker (soldier) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Of Scottish descent, Walker was born in Nashville, Tennessee in 1824 and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Nashville at the early age of fourteen.
		Before the end of the American Civil War, Walker enjoyed great popularity in the southern and western United States, where he was known as "General Walker" and as the "grey-eyed man of destiny." Northerners, on the other hand, generally regarded him as a pirate.
		Locally, Walker is remembered as the only native Nashvillian ever to become a head of state, and a historical marker commemorates his birthplace, downtown not far from Second Avenue.
