1841 look up please. I just can't find them - WALKER
« on: Wednesday 22 August 07 17:16 BST (UK) »

Can anyone help me with an 1841 look up please:

Robert Walker was born 1780 Framlingham. Married to Elizabeth Burman, but she died in 1834 in Framlingham, I think.

Their children were.
Robert b. 1801
William b. 1803
Elizabeth b. 1805
Charles b. 1809
John b. 1810
Samuel 1816
Mary 1818

All born in Framlingham

I've just found online (thanks to a lister who posted the site!) Robert's probate, and he mentions that William and Charles are in Calcutta, so they might not be around, but surely the others should be. I have the 1841 Suffolk on disc, but I haven't managed to find them so far.

Any help gratefully received.

Thanks,
Linda

Thanks Ricky,

My first instinct was to say, no that's not them. But in fact, I now think it is, and I have made a huge mistake, and got into a big muddle.

I knew there were two Roberts in Framlingham:

Robert, s/o Samuel Walker & Mary Lacy b. 1780.
and Robert b. not in Suffolk about 1776, who that census obviously applies to, as he mentions in his will his g/d Jane who was the daughter of his son William, and all the children mentioned in his will are correct.

I have the Framlingham born Robert down as the one who married Elizabeth Burman, but it's obviously (Now) the other Robert who married her and had all those children.

I also knew that there were two Roberts buried in Framlingham.

29.4.1830   Robert Walker   50   1780
18.12.1844   Robert Walker   72   1772

I got them the other way round.


Well, I'm completely flummoxed now. What happened to the Framlingham born Robert, I wonder, and who did he really marry, if anyone. And where was this non Suffolk Robert born?

I seem to have gone a long way down the road in the wrong direction!

Thanks - ruefully  Shocked

Linda - back to the drawing board to figure all this out!

Hi Linda

You might not have gone wrong, it was the only one that I could find, somebody else might find something different Wink
