George Walker born circa 1814
« on: Thursday 23 July 15 19:25 BST (UK) »
Hi all i'm hoping you can help me i'm looking to try and trace my 3 x great grandad (on my grandad's side) His name was George Walker born circa 1814 and have a possible christening for him in 1815 12 Feb; Age: 1; in ABERNETHY,PERTH,SCOTLAND.
I believe his father was Thomas Walker i know nothing more than that, I don't know his mothers name or anything. I know he married an Elizabeth Laidlaw from Kilkee Co. Down Northern Ireland.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Where and when did they marry - in Scotland or in Ireland?

Did he die in Scotland on or after 1855?   If yes- you can download a copy of his death cert from Scotlands People which will show his parents names and mothers maiden name

Please give full details of the child you are descended from to help trace the correct family on any census return

Most of the information on the family in Ireland is found on this DOWN topic-

Hi i'm afraid i don't know where he married this is all the information i have on him.

I'm descended from Ellen Laidlaw Walker she is my 2nd Great Nana on my dad's father's side.

All the information i know about George is in my original post i'm afraid. I can't find anything about his parents other than his father's name is Thomas Walker.
