WALKER FAMILY OF LIVERPOOL UK TO QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA
« on: Friday 12 August 16 18:35 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

I'm helping a friend to research her George Walker born about 1844 Liverpool UK. He was the son of John Walker born about 1812 Hawkshead Lancashire UK and Sarah Ann Simpson born about 1815 Liverpool UK. They all emigrated to Queensland Australia about 1867 along with siblings of George's. George married Emily Ballinger/Bellinger 1872 Toowoomba Queensland Australia. There was about 10 children from this marriage. George died 1918 Brisbane Queensland Australia, my friend would be interested to hear from any others researching George Walker 1844-1918.
Willing to exchange information.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards JeanC

jeanc,

I'm sure many here will be glad to assist, but it would be a help to know exactly what are the gaps in your friend's knowledge at present.
That way we will not be unearthing information already held.
Is it about the offspring and ongoing generations or more about the early days of George WALKER and his wife?
Specifics are the best way to go ;D

Thank you for your reply Sue, my friend has quite a lot of information for the Walker family. What she would like, is to hear from anyone who shares the same George Walker born about 1844 Liverpool Uk, his descendants.

Regards.
JeanC
