scrub  that - i have just realised that means that alice carr married edward walker and then elizabeth carr married william walker. that has just made me think. what relation are they each to each other? is it two sisters marrying two brothers?

is it two sisters marrying two brothers?

No - Alice was niece of Elizabeth - Hannah was (half?) sister to Elizabeth.

1841 - find Hannah CARR living with WALKER family

HO107/157-4/6/6

It's all getting rather murky isn't it?  :o

right now exactly are these walkers - are they related to mine or is it just co-incidence. i think i will have a busy morning tomorrow trying to take this all in and have a good research and think :)

thanks for all your help - it has been realy amazing ( even if confusing) to make such progress so quickly
