Person talk:Richard Walker (4)


Disambiguation Information for Early Richard Walkers of New England [19 February 2012]

There is a lot of confusion concerning Richard Walker's (b. 1592 Marlborough, England) arrival in New England. There is a record of a Richard Walker arriving in Lynn in 1630. In 1635 Richard Walker, shoemaker, came to Lynn from Marlborough England on the "Elizabeth". Perhaps he came in 1630, returned to England to get his family and arrived again in New England in 1635. There is also a problem with his children. I have not listed these except for Samuel pending further research. All are listed in the Family Sheets for the Walker Family.

See the person page for Richard Walker of Marlborough, who was listed as a 1635 passenger, for further discussion of the various Richard Walkers either here or listed as passengers before 1640. There was also another alleged 1635 passenger, Richard Walker, for whom there are no records in New England.--jaques1724 20:24, 19 February 2012 (EST)
