Christine

I think it was pensioned out of the army as medically unfit.

Christine

Hi Chris i have sent you a pm

would he have a pension in 1917 when he didnt die untill 1918

Hi Louise,

I don't know which image Ruth sent to you but as far as I can see there are 4 for thisJohn Walker, the last one being his final pension details dated 25th June 1917 .

I have all 4 saved if you want them, or you can wait for Ruth to come back to you.

Christine

louise x

no what you mean.

looks like im now getting two marriage certs next week

It might be worth having a look in the Parish registers - I mean they may be her children or it might be a coincidence with the surnames.

Ruth

what im being told his she only every had one child

Births Jun 1919 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jones Harold Walker Wolstanton 6b 159

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Births Jun 1921 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jones Mary Walker Wolstanton 6b 215

Found these 2 births so they may be Annice and George's.

Ruth

Marriages Sep 1919 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ellerton Jane Kearns Wolstanton 6b 362
Jones George E Walker Wolstanton 6b 362
Kearns John Ellerton Wolstanton 6b 362
Walker Annice Jones Wolstanton 6b 362

That's great news - perhaps the 2 births that Christine found out were hers and John's children as they came up as being in the Wolstanton district as did this marriage.

Just a thought it may be worth looking at the parish baptismal registers to see if you can find any children for John and Annice.

Ruth

Ruth great news it is them i have just spoken to an anut and told her the name annice and she said that his his wife they had one daughter Ethly(sp) but she remarried when john died to a george jones and he was johns cusin

have just called them they have got it she checked but would not give me the first name of his father

I have no idea of the local geography but found this link for you

You can get the certs from Southport too but I don't know how flexible they are about only issuing them when you're not to sure of all the info and I've only ever contacted the local register office to where I want the cert from. If you don't want to buy the cert then possibly the register office can point you in the direction of the local record office where the registers may be kept.

Good luck with your search.

Ruth

right Ruth thanks for all your help .I think i will be going to Hanley next week to go and get the cert just a thought would i be able to get it from there i have always ordered them from southport
