I see. Thanks for explaining. That makes a lot of sense. I guess Alice and Thomas did have a lot of children and perhaps they couldn't afford to have all the children living with them or couldn't cope with them all living with them. It sounds like Walter was very lucky to have William.

That would make sense if he was living with William in 1891 and 1901, then joined the army in 1902. I haven't got anymore military records after 1911 and I guess a lot could change between 1911and 1921. I haven't got access to the Census myself but I can see that the Census had both Walter...

That's great. Thank you so much for all this information. Do you know William's address when Walter was living with him? Also, any idea what took Walter to Yorkshire? The last information I have on Walter is that he's based oversea's and that's according to the 1911 Census.

Hi MWS, thanks for getting back to me. You're spot on; my grandfathers' grandfather is Walter L and My grandfather's brother was also Walter L. There's also a Walter L down my grandfather's cousin's side, who married my Grandmother's sister and obviously, my grandfather married my...

Hi Lyn, thank you for the warm welcome :blush:

Hi there, I realise that this is a very old post and you were looking for information on the Kirby family but do you have any more information about Walter Layland Mountney? I believe Walter may be related to me but I'm not sure how. Walter was a soldier in the Royal Artillery in 1903 and had...
