Eunice Report 9 Apr 2015 22:36

This is for a work colleague, and info is a bit sparse, but this is what she knows: Walter was born c 1889, in Lincolnshire. Or was he? on the 1901 census he is down as being born in Nettleton, Lincs, aged 12 years son of Fred and Charlotte Wackett. on the 1901 census he is aged 22, single, but place of birth is given as Navan, Ireland, and he is registered as a nephew. I have found his war records from WW1 and he was discharged towards the end of the war having lost an eye, but on the Military sheet, Fed is back down as father??? I have found other Wackett's on Ancestry who were born in Navan, so maybe there are links, but checking what access I have to irish records have not yet found anything new. My colleagues late mother said he was always treated a little differently, and there is speculation he may not have been Charlotte and Fred's son, but a cousin?
Please note, he is NOT the Walter Wackett b 1889 in St Pancras, London. I could not find him on free BMD. He never married, and died in 1966. Any thoughts, good people?
