My connection is through my g g grandmother. She was Elizabeth Wright Walker born 1830 in York & her parents were William Walker & his wife Sarah(maiden name not yet known).  William is supposedly related to Johnnie Walker in some way.

Hi IOMBar
Sorry only just seen your post- I havent visited the website for a long time -just spotted it in my deleted/spam.
Am still interested to know if Johnnie had any siblings or not-are you able to help?
Any info would be great

Thanks for all your help & information Dave.
Your suggestions will be taken up.  I can forsee a trip to Kilmarnock in the summer months!

Thanks for your messages ev & daval57.
I have the census details already.
Will try the website you have given me for further information.
I have got as far back as 1830 on my walker line but all live in & around York/Leeds area.  Would be a big jump from Kilmarnock area to Leeds/York in one generation.
Thanks again

Johnnie Walker (as in the whisky) was born Riccarton 25 July 1805.
Does anyone know (or point me in the right direction to find out) if he had any brothers or sisters and if so their names. Family rumour has it that we are descendants of a brother of his.
