Hi Kirsty how are you, if you can give us details of what you know of George Walker, ie where/when he was born, who he married and his childrens names and again places and years of birth, I am sure we will see if their is a link to John Walker.

i was told that hambridge family camed from ireland but because the walker family worked on the canal they might of come from ireland as i do remeber my nan did have a funny voice and my sister did say that my grandad family camed from ireland but i do think my nans family might of come from ireland too.

There is a hambridge family, father Joseph William hambridge, living in Brentford and a son Darren William hambridge living in Ealing, London. Guess they are directly related to family your are searching for.
