A William Walker 56 Manchester, Foreman Iron Moulder was living in North Manchester in 1901. Too many Walkers around to use the decoder. With names, birthplaces and ages of his family it might be possible to locate them.

my gg grandad was b 1845 in manchester. on his w cert it says his father had the same name. both were moulders. have younger william on the 1881 and 1891 living in yorkshire. can find nothing else on either of them. have a marriage from bmd for 1866 in bradford could be him, marrying a nancy or emma, so might have been in bradford area in 1871, help. sue.
