Find Ancestors

Hi
Have been trying to sort my Peter Walker out but having problems trying to match the right person with the right family.
As was the practice naming sons after fathers I have a number of Peter Walker's.
Here is the information I have
Peter Walker b:1850 Hindley, Lancashire married to Jane
Note: Hindley is the next village to Westhoughton and I have other Walker family members in Hindley
Peter Walker b:1851 Westhoughton, Lancashire married to Ann

If it is possible would like information from the census for 1851, 61, 71, 81, 91, 1901, 11 and addresses and other household members

This information would be a great help in trying to work the jigsaw out

Many thanks

Ann

Can you please tell us everything you actually know about 'your' Peter ?

How have you worked your way back to him and how does he fit in to your family?
