I have just received copies of wills belonging to relataives,Edward Walker late of Thirtleby,east yorkshire. In the will it mentions a Moses Walker brother and a Clara Augusta Walker granddaughter. ( she was the daughter of Edwards son John who died in 1862) |

This looks like the marriage of John Edward. |

1871 and it looks as though Anne has re-married and been widowed again |

John Edward is living and farming in 1861 in Beverley. He is noted as married. So it looks as though the marriage has broken down. He dies, as you say in 1862. |

Can't find a Moses from Halsham and there is no baptism for a Moses there. Did the family move around? Does Edward give any details of his occupation or location in the will? |

This one looks the most likely as it is in the same area around Hull and Edwards father is also Edward from his baptism record. |

And a possible marriage. Just re-read your original message that Edward married Mary Caley. I wonder if they married sisters? |
