Hi Rainne,

How old (yr born) was daughter Annie Henrietta on her marriage, what yr married, where married, were her parents alive or deceased & who were the witnesses?

What was the occupation of Alexander Walker on each document?

Annie

I think you will need to track Alexander down through census records to establish a death as the death cert. may give his parentage?

I'm not sure why you have posted this on a Scottish board when the information you seem to be wanting relates to his time in New York!   It was only when I saw the 'nyc' as place of first marriage that I twigged we should be in the US.

There is a tree on ancestry that states the children of the first marriage were:

James A Walker born 20 Dec (?) 1879 who died 22 Sep 1881
Annie Henrietta Walker born 17 Aug 1882
Alexander Cameron Walker born 23 Oct 1884

From second marriage:

James F. Walker born 30 Mar 1892
William F. Walker born 31 Mar 1894

According to earlier census/baptism records Alexander Walker was born 25/6/1852, bap. 15/8/1852 Rafford, Moray (Rafford some 2 1/2 miles from Forres).   Family lived in Rafford - his parents being James Walker (d.1859) and Helen Smith who married 3 Jan.1845 Rafford.

On 1861 census Alexander is living in Rafford with an aunt/uncle James and Elspeth Hutchison, his widowed mother also in Rafford with his siblings:

Helen Walker    44      born Rafford
Isabella Walker  15       ditto
James Walker 11          ditto
John Walker 5              ditto
George Walker 3           ditto
