"James Wall 1840-1884
I am looking for information on my great-grandfather James Wall who came to Gibraltar from the UK around 1860. He married Josephine Gonzalez at the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in 1874 and died in Gibraltar on 2:9;1884.
The four children from this marriage were James, Henry, Arthur.
Would like to know where James was born, where and who his parents were.
Appreciate any help"

James came from UK to live in Gibraltar where he married in 1874 Josephine Gonzalez born in 1849. I am desperately looking for James' parents. Can someone out there help me? James died in 1884 and is buried in Gibraltar.
