Title: Williams and Walker in Belfast
Post by: maggieryan on Monday 03 February 20 21:58 GMT (UK)
Hi

I am looking for information on the family of George Walker who is the Irish census 1901 and 1911 living in forth river gardens in Belfast. His wife Mary (born Mary Magdalen Williams) died around 1909 although I cannot find a record.

I think his father was Robert who married  (in Donegal) Mary Stewart from Aberdeen but unsure. If anyone has any other infor I would be delighted to have it
