I thought that Mary Elizabeth was the daughter of Harriet and George not Harriet and Henry Bolt. Which is correct?

Hi this is Koala32,

Messages take a long time to reach Australia!!!

I hope that by sending this I have reassured you that I am alive and well and therefore reading the messages. Sorry I have been "unavailable" for a while but I am back now.

Walter Henry did indeed work on the railways. He married Ellen Ethel Elliott and they had two children - Norman and Vera.

Should anyone want more details I would be happy to fill them in.

Thanks,

I am new to this site and was surprised to see so much family history for Skelcey. My grandfather was Walter Henry. It is my aim to try to trace back his family and it looks like I can get a good start here.

The information that I have to date (from family word of mouth) is that Walter had brothers called Richard & Charles and a sister Mabel. I had no idea that there were around 10 other siblings. My father used to refer to an "Aunt Tottie" but I can see no resemblence of this in the information listed. Could she have been a later sibling? Also I believe that one of Mabel's sisters married a man called "Bolt" who lived in Radford. All of this seems to line up with information listed here.

It seems that my Great Grandparents would be George and Harriet. Does anyone have any information on him or his ancestors?

I would be grateful for any confirmation or further information.

Thanks.
