My ancestors appear to have originated in Over or Middlewich in Cheshire. Their surname was Walker & main occupations were butcher, publican or shopkeeper.
Favourite family names repeated over the years were William, Charles, John & Ann plus the odd Charles, James, Joseph & Mary. If anyone has a possible link (no matter how tenuous) I should be interested to hear from you.

Hi edith, and welcome to rootschat.
Re your surname WALKER, at the bottom of this page on the screen there is a link to "Your Surname Interests"... why not put the details of your names there and also search to see if anyone else is looking for the smae people?
Good luck.

Hello Edith
This link may be of interest to you. It is for Middlewich cemetery and there seem to be quite a few 'Walker' burials there.

Best wishes

Many thanks for that. I have traced back to 1774 but there are a few gaps so it may well be that some of the ancestors moved out to Middlewich. One of the wives was definitelya Middlewich girl & I have yet to establish her death so it will be very useful.

edithf, by cahsing deaths and burials you are following best practice in family history... so often we don't find them dead and buried... and make mistakes as a result.
Hope you get some good info from the link kelly has given you.
