Hi, Thanks for your replies, yes I had the same reaction when I started researching my paternal grandparents line and also being a Welshman living in North Wales. Wales is a village and civil parish in the District of Rotherham in South Yorkshire, England. It is on the border of South Yorkshire and Derbyshire. The civil parish of Wales, encompasses the village of Wales and neighbouring settlement of Kiveton Park and is on the opposite side of the Chesterfield Canal from Killamarsh. A lot of my Walker family resided in Waleswood,Treeton,Wales and Harthill areas of South Yorkshire from at least around 1750 to 1860 before moving a mile or so over the border to Killamarsh in Derbyshire around 1860. I have come to a brickwall in trying to identify the birth of the correct Francis Walker, however his wife Sarah Spencer was Christened on the 7th November 1742 in the Parish of Wales, Yorkshire.
I am assuming Francis Walker was born and resided somewhere else,possibly a neighbouring parish.
Any help is always most appreciated.
Many Thanks for your interest.
