    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Yeoman Farmer at 'Weston'
    • _UID: CF90FABE5705406B865173EDD1BE053A23BC
    • Baptism: 30 Dec 1787, Bradworthy DEV
    • Residence: 1841, Bradworthy DEV
    • Census: 6 Jun 1841, 'Weston', Bradworthy DEV; : 53y
    • Emigration: 1842, ENG
    • Residence: 1852, Darlington, Durham ONT

    Notes:

    Moved temporarily from Canada to Illinois (IL) in 1849 along with his second wife Mary CANN and son Nathan C. WALTER(s). Stayed in Illinois until 1855 as he and Mary were recorded in the 1850 US Census living in Lake County IL.

    Birth:
    The date of Charles WALTER's birth remains something of a mystery. Almost all available sources say that he was born on 30 Sep 1787. I do not know the source of this date but would like to know where it is sourced. He was baptised on 30 Dec 1787 and that date seems reasonable if he was born on 30 Sep of the same year. His recently revealed headstone image reveals that he died on 8 Oct 1859 aged 73 years and 3 months. If his headstone age is correct then he was born between 9 Jun 1786 and 8 Jul 1786 which would mean he was born in late June 1786.

    Added to this mystery is the fact that his parents William WALTER (1757-1827) and Ann BRIMACOMBE (c. 1766-1837) were married at Bradworthy on 9 Apr 1787, long after June 1786 and not too far short of 30 Sep 1787. It should also be said that in England during some periods it was quite common for some couples to marry after or not long before the birth of their first child.

    Forced to make a guess as to the real answer, I would say that following his death, the family put an incorrect age on his headstone so causing 20th. and 21st. century family historians much head scratching! Unfortunately, we will probably never know the truth!
