Title: HOPE PRs - WALKER of Abney c1785
Post by: walkerpete on Monday 10 January 11 10:33 GMT (UK)

I wonder if SKS with access to the Hope PRs could tell me whether Micah/Michael Walker and Margaret Hall had any male children at Abney in the approx. period 1776-1800 please?

I have found five females (Martha, Mercy, Mary, Sarah and Hanah) on LDS batch C031315 but have so far been unable to locate any boys in this period, other than a  William christened at Tideswell in 1797.

Many thanks in advance!

Pete

Hi Sienna

Thanks very much for getting back to me with these records. I got the girls I posted originally from the IGI on an older version of FamilySearch. When I ran a search with the current version just now I got all of the ones you posted plus some deaths so a very satisfactory result!

Micah and Margaret appear to have had 10 children but only three of them appear to have survived beyond the age of 21. A very sobering thought.

Once again many many thanks

Pete
