	In the case of Robert Walker being illegitimate, what's the chance of finding a record of his birth ? From census returns it would seem he was born circa 1822 ?

	Hi Shirley, a lot of this family I'm researching have Quaker background and they do seem to have recorded a lot of birth dates pre 1839 :-) Not the norm, I agree.
