There is a tree on Ancestry for the William Henry Walker who married Mary Ellen Peden - it has a photo of him in Army uniform. If you don't have Ancestry, you should be able to access the tree on the Mundia site.

Thanks a million for your help and directions. I have asked my friend to get her grandfathers birth certificate which will put a bit more light on the subject.
Once again, many thanks

Good evening all: I am looking for the birth details of James Kenneth Walker in particular details of his fathers name and birth country which descendant's believe to be Ireland. It is also thought that James Kenneth was one of nine children. Your help is greatly appreciated.
