The Walker Family
« on: Tuesday 09 June 09 19:37 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Ellen Walker nee ?.She was born in Wallstown.Two of her children, William and Harriet were born in Ireland, William probably in the Kilkenny area and Harriet in Waterford.She had two other children who were born in England,John and Michael my Grandfather, John was born in Coventry and Michael in Liverpool.
I know about John and Michael but it would be interesting to know about William and Harriet's births and if possible my Greatgrandmother's maiden name.
There was a family problem and we have no contact with the Walkers so I have no way of getting first hand knowledge,

The children's birth certificates should list their mother's maiden name. See index to civil registration and then with the index details you can order certificates:

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
