Kilkenny / Re: Walton-Baptism
« on: Wednesday 31 August 11 10:35 BST (UK) »
Hello Mel
This is an old post but I'd thought I'd add some information in case you are still interested! I was born in Ovenstown (Newtown), Kells, Co. Kilkenny. There was a John Walton along with his son Patrick who farmed there in the 1800s and early 1900s. Bassets directory 1884 seems to show a Nicholas Walton living in Ovenstown along with John Walton. It also lists "Flour & Meal - Kells Grange Mills, Nicholas Walton"
There weren't that many waltons in Kilkenny so its possible that John Walton was a brother of his.
