He resigned earlier too, in November 1853, shortly after joining, but rejoined. The reason given for his resignation was 'to emigrate'.

Given the marriage record has his father's name as Samuel, he is probably William Wallace baptised 21 April 1833. Address given as Carrigacrew in the Church of Ireland parish of Kildrumferton in Co. Cavan. Father Samuel Wallace (labourer), mother Ann Wallace. There appear to be siblings Jane, Ellen, Sarah and Samuel.

Thanks for this. Is there a link to this information?

Ahh, so you are thinking the William Walsh entry is in fact William Wallace and it is a transcription error?  Marriage certificate states his father was a farmer so him also being a farmer before joining the DMC makes sense.

I am so grateful for all this, thank you so much. I have been stuck getting back with this part of my family tree for years. The two eldest children being before his marriage to Fanny suggests they are not hers and are from his first marriage which makes sense.

These people are my family also. Did you get any further tracing them in Ireland? I know this post is very old but stumbled across it so thought I’d reply on the off chance! Thomas Henry Wallace born 3rd May 1876 at 45 Gloucester Street, Chester was my Grandfather and William and Fanny Wallace’s second youngest child. I have a copy of William’s death certificate and some info about Fanny from after she moved to Liverpool with her younger children after William’s death from bronchitis in 1881.
