Thank you
George Walker the grandson any idea who Mother and Father are I might then be able to join the family up.This is all correct so far as Harry Field a Great grandfather :-D

I've given you the details of the Tong/Walker marriage!

See posting timed at 10:12 AM

Flick
Can you give me any more details of Henry Walker It looks like George was brought up with Grand parents Tong and Harriett might have died You have taken me back further than before Thanks :-D

You'd have to buy the marriage cert for more info about Henry

And you can look on freebmd for possible death for Harriet............

You should also consider that Henry may have died........and Harriet re-married.

BTW.......the 1861 census records George as being with his maternal grandparents on the night in question................he didn't necessarily live with them all of the time. You'd need to check that..........

Just checked for you......George did stay on with the Tongs....
