Walter/Walker WELSH 1913-?
« on: Saturday 17 April 21 00:19 BST (UK) »
Walter WELSH was born 1913 in Invercargill to Walter and Jeannie Johnstone WELSH. The father's name was actually Walker with a K so am thinking that Walter the son was actually Walker as well.

Think he may have died within a year or so as the next child born 1915 was called Carson Walker WELSH.

Can find no death for a Walker WELSH around that time. The father Walker WELSH died in 1973.

Not the Walter WELSH who died in Invercargill in 1949. He was too old, born c1890.

Walker's will of 1973 mentions his three other surviving sons. Carson Walker WELSH was killed at Cassino in WW2.

Have tried various spellings but to no avail. Not a stillbirth as far as I know. His death may not have been registered.

Thanks

Have you looked under WALSH, there is a Walter WALSH died 1913 aged 14 hours.
WELSH & WALSH are easley mixed up.
