Hello Nessie, Joe and Gunthwaite,

Thank you for all information.

William Milnes Walker wife Hannah Balgue, her sister Elizabeth was my Ancestor.
Also I am looking for a connection between John Walker and Hannah Milnes that I mention with William Milnes Walker if any. John Walker's mother was Ann Balgue, related to Hannah and Elizabeth.
Regards Laurence
