Hi,
in 1891 census at RG 12/ 3373 folio 59 pg 54
there is a Walter Graham aged 9 yrs b Padiham, Burnley with parents Thomas Graham and Sarah A. There are quite a few siblings.
There is also at RG 12/ 3151 folio 121 pg 4- The Swinton Industrial Schools
Walter Graham aged 8 yrs born Manchester. This is in Worsley which is the Salford area.
I have never heard of Salforth.
Are any of these the ones you want?
Best wishes
Heywood

Would it be possible to have the siblings for Thomas and Sarah,
The only information i have is that walter was born 4th August 1883,In 1901 Walter was a Gunner R.F.A

Do you mean Salford?  Burnley and Salford are two different places within Lancashire

I have checked the full GRO index for 1883 and it is probably this entry

September quarter 1883 Manchester Volume 8D page 248 but it is just Walter.  There is no Walter Jack Graham in 1883 in any quarter and that entry is the only one for Lancashire

Hello Again
The 1901 census says seaforth,St Thomas

Thanks
Julie

Hi

Seaforth was the area he was living in in 1901 - it's part of Liverpool.  His birthplace is just shown as  Burnley Lancashire

Hi
Thank you Carole

Hi Julie- 1901 says born Burnley so it looks as though it could be the Padiham one. Seaforth is presumably where he was stationed.
1891 24 Palmerston Street Padiham
Thomas Graham  47 yrs Commission agent b Langcliffe yorks
Sarah A      41 yrs b Old Buckenham Norfolk
Christopher    20 yrs cotton weaver Settle yorks
Elizabeth A 18 yrs      -ditto- Settle yorks
Robert  16 rys           -ditto-  Horton in Aver, Yorks
Wilfred       12 ys  scholar b Padiham
Walter 9 yrs scholar b Padiham
Eliza A  8 yrs scholar   b Padiham

Thank you Heywood
I think that you are right,I will order the birth certificate,as the original has no parents on it.

Kind regards

Julie
