I can't see any obvious children on FreeBMD?
Unless Elizabeth had been married before, and her maiden name wasn't Shaw?

Search on FreeBMD.

The only Walker births, with a mother's maiden name of Shaw were in Darlington.

That's looking at the North Riding of Yorkshire, where Middlebrough was located! Not East Riding ;D

I think you need that marriage certificate to see if Elizabeth had been married before.

Do you know when she died, as there must be lots of Elizabeth Shaws living in the area?

Thank-you
