1851 look up please
« on: Friday 09 December 05 10:31 GMT (UK) »
Can any kind person find these people please, shown here on the 1841 in Levington:-

1841 Levington
Margueretta Walker 45 Ind Scot/Ire/foreign
Marion 20 Y
Ellen 19 Y
Isabella 17 Y
Hercules 16 Y
Ronald 8 Y

The husband was Charles Walker b. about 1787, possibly in Scotland. and died in Levington in 1854. I don't know why he's not on the 1841 with the family. There were also other children who are not on the 1841 census:
John Charles b. abt 1816
James Mill b. abt 1824
Thomas 1825
William Francis abt 1837

I don't have any of this family between 1841-1871. I've got most of them on the 1881. Margaret died in 1859

There is also some confusion about their birth. James Mill Walker for instance is on the IGI three times christened Scotland 1823, Ipswich 1824 and in Levington in 1835. Curious.  Most of the other children are on the IGI being christened in Ipswich, then all christened again in Levington in 1835.

Thanks for any help.

Hi

I've looked at all 16 images for Levington, given Charles' death there in 1854 .... but couldn't see any Walkers :(

Do you have any more 'place of birth' details from the 1881 Census, as this would help a great deal!

cheers

Hi Ridban

Did you ever resolve your WALKER ?

Found 2 entries on the Suffolk Burial Index that might give you a lead if you are not there already:

Charles WALKER abode Aldringham buried 14 Nov 1854 age 66 at Aldringham cum Thorpe, St Andrew.

Margaueretta WALKER abode Putney SRY 24 Sep 1859 age 72 at Aldringham cum Thorpe, St Andrew.


The dates certainly fit your search.  There is only one WALKER burial in Levington:

William WALKER 14 Aug 1828 3m Levington, St Peter.
