Canada Lookup Request / Frank Walker
« on: Saturday 21 October 23 08:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi there,

I am trying to find out what happened to a family member who emigrated to Canada from Scotland.

Name Frank(Francis) McGregor Teviotdale Walker
Born: 22 July 1893, Dundee, Scotland
Last known marital status: Single

After arriving in Canada he enlisted in the Canadian Over-seas Expeditionary Forces (Nov 16th 1914) to serve in WW1, but was discharge due to illness on October 30th 1916, he returned to Montreal, Canada, and I can find no further detail.

Thanks in advance,

Perthshire / Walkers in Meigel
« on: Monday 16 January 12 03:22 GMT (UK)  »
Hi There,

This is my first post here, hopefully of many. I have become quite captivated by researching my family tree since taking over what my sister started some time ago!

I am currently trying to investigated the Walker line of my family tree and have tracked them as far back as living in Megile, Perthshire, in 1824 when a John Andrew Walker was born to a John Walker and Ann Hutcheson. 1851 Census data, shows them as living in 'Logie Toll Bar', 1841 Censs data has no record of a John Walker of the correct age living at this address although there is another John Walker aged 30 (not his Father I don't think as this would make him 13 at the time of his birth).

Firstly can anyone adivse if they have ever heard of Logie Toll Bar and what it is, or if I have read this incorrectly what it might be?
Secondly has anyone else got a record of any Walkers living in Meigle that might link in with these Walkers.

Thanks
M
