Not spotting a birth for Norman.

Both sisters baptised Oct. 21, 1923, Agnes b. Jan. 10, 1922, Irene Dec. 20, 1922. If these dates
are accurate, yikes, 2 children the same year.

Lots of little "herrings"  :)

I didn't come across a birth record either  :-\  Likewise I was thinking the other side of 1931.  :-\
A fair distance Blairmore Alberta to Montreal ........ :-\  Could be way out with the connection.  :-\
Also wondered if it could have been a son of John Walker  :-\

The names in Annie Laurie Walker/Gambrell obit - referenced a Norman and Ruth - so I went with those names for a while.

The name Norman did feature in among brothers of Frank  ???  He was killed or died as a direct result of enemy action.  19 th May 1915 - Drake Battalion Royal Naval Division - Buried Near Div Hq, Southern End of Gallipoli Peninsula - Father: Andrew 168, Hawks Hill, Dundee.

1901 census 14 Wilkies Lane Dundee.
