Hi

Thanks for the info.  On all the census records I have found it did say Walkerfield, apart from one which said Wackerfield.  Now I know it is Wackerfield.

Hi all
Not sure how ago this post has been running, I have just discovered Walkerfield on a memorial on Ancestry  and agree Wakerfield seems most likely.  Think the stone mason must have to much red
I will share a link.   https://www.ancestry.com.au/mediaui-viewer/tree/71388504/person/402550363492/media/51079db6-f139-4319-b8e8-e49b9104f8df?usePUBJs=true
