London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: 1841 look-up WALLDER

Hi Jeff, not made much progress going back at all, although keeping in touch with things that are more recent,as they come on-line. In the last two years the computer that I stored all my family trees on gave up the ghost .I unplugged it whilst I decorated and then the flipping thing wouldn't start due to battery failure,unfortunately the batteries were part of the circuit board ,so as I stupidly hadn't copied them ,I lost them all. I decided to update all my paperwork and start again,rather than have them retrieved. I am nowhere near being up to date yet as I have been transcribing for a local history site and rather enjoy doing it.
I will have a look on GenesReunited later. By the way, I did see the Wallder name on the door plate ,on Stephen Fry's WDYTYA programme and noticed you had mentioned it. I always wondered if our forebears were German ,as I once looked up the meaning of the Wallder name and if I remember rightly, it said dweller of the Black Forest or was it just forest! doubting myself now. Nice to hear from you . Sheila
