Just checking back on the thread. I have some doubts about Walter in 1891 shown as a prisoner. The image says he is single and occupation of hawker. He could have lied. Walter is shown on 1881 as commerical clerk and on 1901 as bookmakers clerk. Have looked at several other possibles but none have occupation of clerk of any sort. Maureen
