On the 1891 she is shown as Louisa Depledge and in the death index here is a possible one
Louisa Walker Birth Year: abt 1870, Sep 1898, age at death 28, Islington London, Volume: 1b Page: 214
Since he was a policeman I wonder if he had been posted away and then came back after she died so someone could look after the child?

Margaret...I seen that death and the age fits in ,but Matthew was an officer with Lancashire police,and all his postings were in Lancashire...there is a possibility he may have transferred to the Metropolitan Police....it is an avenue to look at if we can`t find Louise in 1901 census or her death 1896-1901....thanks...allan;)
LOL Elaine...HIS names John from Bedford .....have sent him an invite but he`s gone off line.allan
On checking that again,Matthew says he is married on 1901 census...would he not have stated Widower ,like he did in 1911 ??Last edited by garstonite; 30-07-09, 07:50.Allan ......... researching oakes/anyon/standish/collins/hartley/barker/collins-cheshire

Originally posted by Elaine ..Spain View PostJust rechecking what Margaret found and there are 4 or 5 Louisa Walkers on the 1891 census in and around the London area - so that death could relate to any of them - as well as many other Louisa's who could have married a Walker at about that time!
Not a lot of help! ;)

Hello, Yes it's me who started this research. Thanks very much for efforts so far. I have a lady friend who is the grandaughter of this Matthew Walker from his 2nd marriage, & we are off to see the war grave of her step uncle in August. All she said to me was that she'd like to know a bit more of his background. I only started on Monday.
Regards John
