Hi Owen, many thanks for your reply. I don't have paperwork to prove this connection but some of the info came from another researcher who has a copy of Burkes landed gentry that has a tree.I am certain they are my ancestors as John and Dinahs eldest daughter was Eleanor who married Joseph Hamilton and their daughter was my gg grandmother Dinah Wardell Hamilton. The family lived in Trimdon for many generations.

and this is almost certainly the right farm. Looking at the census info the Waltons had the farm from the early 19th century and possibly before up to 1871-1881. Not sure what happened but they stayed in Trimdon for many years after. The Browns continued to farm in the area. I will message you my email. all the best Angela
