Hi Englander,

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

You'd need one of the children's birth certs to confirm this but I can see this possible marriage (bearing in mind their first child was born in Birmingham)

Jun 1888 Birmingham  6d 92     
Albert Edward Walker to possibly Rosamond Bagshaw

The 1881 census shows a Rosamond Bagshaw born in Crowle Worcestershire (which is the birthplace shown for Rose on the 1891 census) and living Birmingham:

You can obtain UK birth certs via
www.gro.gov.uk
where I think they still cost £7 each.

Yes they still do, Lydart  8)

Would you like us to trace the families back, Englander, or were you searching for descendants?  :)

I'm afraid I don't see a death of a Florence Englander in the England & Wales Death Index 1984-2005.  Did Florence die under another name?

Happy to trace them back, Englander. Please be aware that you'll need certs to confirm my finds  :)
 
Given that Albert was living in Worcester St Helens in 1891 (and the fact he's a milkman), I quite like this boy in 1881:

From there, 1871 shows dad's name as Henry:

1871

St Helen, Worcester
33 Friar Street

Henry Walker, head, 46, Dairy Man Master, b. Staffordshire Bruff Hall? (wonder if this should read Brierley Hill!)  
Anne, wife, 39, b. Worcestershire Evesham
John, son, 19, Dairy Man, b. Worcester
Henry, son, 17, Dairy Man, b. Worcester
William, son, 15, Dairy Man, b. Staffordshire
Richard, son, 13, scholar, b. Staffordshire

10 years earlier ...

1861
RG9/1996 79 6
Wolverhampton, Staffordshire
Bilston Road

Henry Walker, head, 35, Railway Pointsman, b. Staffordshire Bilston
Ann, wife, 30, b. Worcestershire Evesham
John, son, 9, scholar, b. Worcester
Henry Edwin, son, 7, scholar, b. Worcester
Wm Marshall, son, 5, scholar, b. Stafford Brierley Hill
Richard, son, 3, scholar, b. Staffordshire Wolverhampton

I'm unable to ID Henry in 1851, or a definite marriage for him and Ann. You may have to purchase the birth cert for one of their children to discover Ann's maiden name.

OK, who are we following now? The Englanders? I'm afraid this is going to be short given their birth places

1901
RG13/3169 27 8
Nottingham
32 Snemton? Street
3 rooms occupied

Barnett Englander, head, 35, Tailor, b. Germany (German Subject)
Bertha, wife, 28, b. Germany (German Subject)
Morris, son, 8, b. Bradford Yorks
Minnie, dau, 6, b. Nottingham   

The 1891 census shows Bernhard in Salford Lancashire, boarding with a family named Frieze (dad Morris Frieze a Tailor born Germany). Birth place plain 'Germany' again  :(

Mmmm. There's a marriage in March quarter 1893, Bradford 9b 188, for a Bernard Englander but the possible brides are Martha Elizabeth Firth or Betsy Rosenberg  ???
