I think this must be the right one,I have to pass the information on,because I wa looking for someone else.
Thanks so much for your time.

Hi Jen
I cant seem to find a marriage date for George,as he was in the army could he have been married by an army chaplin,where are the records kept.

There are some Sussex births registered where the mother's maiden name is Harris which support a marriage around that time:

Jun 1915   Evelyn N Walkling   Steyning
Mar 1914  Hilda M Walkling   Brighton
(Dec 1912  George V Walkling  Fulham)

Thank you
Could someone see where they were living in the 1901 census.
Thanks

I think this is the 1891 family in 1901, but whether it is your family is yet to be proved. Still no Kent connection.

RG13/1369
Henley
Sarah A Walkling, 47, widow, seamstress
Nellie Walkling, 20, dau
Charly Walkling, 14, son    (looks like Chably)
Frank Walkling, 10, son
Frank Bradby, 21, visitor, printer         all born Henley

These suggests it was Sarah A Walkling rather than Mary as in 1891:

Death
Jun 1912  Henley
Sarah A Walkling  aged 58

Marriage:
Jun 1880  Reading
George Thomas Walkling
Sarah Ann Johnson
