I'm getting really confused now! But that's not difficult for me.
Ada Horsted married Albert Frededrick Walker in 1890 in West Ham.
We then have Ada E born to Walter Walker and Ada nee Horsted in 1891 West Ham.
Then your Grandmother Elizabeth in 1896.
When Elizabeth marries her father is James Albert Walker.
So we have three Walkers.

Astra, you mean Ada Horsted

Scrap that. So you know that the parents of your Nan are correct. What was Nan's name and when was she born. I'm thinking that you have the wrong marriage cert.>>>>>>>Oh no you can't have because this is your Nan you're talking about. So the Ada born to Walter you think is the correct one.

Astra, with Ada's marriage i have a problem here, you see Ada E Walker is my nan's sister Ada Horsted being my nan's mum. However on my nan's birth cert (1896) it states father as walter walker, on her marriage cert of 1920 it states father as James albert walker and in brackets deceased fishmonger. So im really confused as to which walker ada horsted settled with
