- Free BMD site has entry for September quarter 1863. Ref. 10A 445. Copy certificate now obtained. His age is shown as 25 and hers 33. However,
he should only be 21. Perhaps because of the disparity in ages he added a few years! His father is shown as Thomas Walker a gardener and George's occupation is also gardener. No occupation shown for Ann. Ann's father John is a farmer.

Mar 1893 |
St Peter, Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland, Co. Durham |
- Copy certificate issued 7 November 2013 shows Arthur Percy 25 a butcher of 2 Morrisons Terrace, Hillingtree? and Elizabeth Crosling Gibb 26 spinster, no occupation of 20 Blandford Street, Sunderland. His father is named as Henry Walker a linguist and hers John Gibb upholsterer. Arthur's father was George Henry Walker, last known occupation was a butler so is this Arthur 'our' man? Also, George Henry cannot be traced after the 1871 census, although his wife is stated in the 1881 census as being a butler's wife. In her death certificate in 1887 she is also stated as a wife of George Walker a butler. One of the witnesses of the wedding was Anne Atkinson, who from the 1891 census appears to be Elizabeth's aunt.
