There is a marriage for the name in the right area in 1940 to Eileen Wilde, which you could have found yourself on freebmd

You say you are ‘searching’ for him. in what sense?

And what research have you done yourself?

Your relations are the Williams couple, based on your other thread.

Walton was probably just a lodger, or boarder.

Look at the birth date on 1939 register

The one you've posted is on the 1939 register in Stourbridge with his wife

Hi

I am searching for a William Walton who was recorded on the 1939 register as living in Chertsey, Surrey.

He was living with Dennis and Bertha Williams and their son David A Williams.

Thank you.
Joan
