John Walter Keller was born in Washington Co., VA near Abingdon in 1871, the eldest child of Jacob and Rebecca (Robinson) Keller. His mother died when he was 3 1/2 years old. His father died when he was 14. In the early 1890's he came by train to Madison County, IA where he lived for a few years with a sister of his mother and family, the Charles Clarks.
As Walter as he was called grew up, he was cared for by his father with the help of his father's sisters, particularly one aunt, Virginia (Keller) Pile. Following is a letter written to him by the Aunt in May of 1907 a few months prior to her death back at Abingdon.........
