Hi List,
I would like to thank Joan for all her help so far, If
anyone is connected to WALTONS or LEES I would love to
hear from you.-below is what Joan sent, and my answere/Questions.

Hi Joan,
Thank you very much for the 1851 census information, No I didn't have
any of that so it was a great sup rise to get it.
I noticed that the son Thomas WALTON aged 20 years was not there.
he was possibly studying to be a Chemist/Druggist, Are there any
Universities or schools where he could have been studying in the 1851
census?
Elijah WALTON & his son Thomas were chemists when they
lived in Australia in late 1850/80.
What does Neighbours 24711 mean?

Re Monslow LEES, he was the father of Mary Ann WALTON,
so I guess he was born cira 1770/80. - Mary Ann LEES was
down as been born in Birmingham in abt 1806. but no name
for her mother.- The only entries I can find on the IGI list for
Mary Ann LEES is
1/. Christened Jul 1806, St Martin ,Birmingham,Father John LEES,
mother-Maria.- Batch:C010728/Source-091967/-Film-6900588.
2/. Christined_24 Sep.1806-St.Martin,Birmingham.-
Father-Thomas Parker LEES mother Elizabeth.
Batch:C010728/source-0919767/film -6900588
So I don't know which one is right or ?

Thanks once again for all your help, I really appreciate all the time
you have spent to help me, its people like you that give people like me
the encouragement to keep going.

If you know any of answers to my questions I will be grateful.
Cheers from Sunny but cool, Queensland, Australia.
