NOTE: Family Tree provided by Kate Sutcliffe, who's great grandfather Robert was George Walker's older brother.
NOTE: George Walker refers to ten children in his family in the letter quoted below, so presumably one died at an early age, perhaps Ellen. He was the longest living Walker sibling. His obituary stated: "He was preceded in death by six sisters and four brothers. Surviving are two nieces, Dorothy Forsyth of Hollywood, Ireland, and Rebecca Walker of Enniskillen, Ireland, and also grandnieces and nephews, all in northern Ireland."
