Janet Walker was born March 27, 1850, the daughter of William and Jane Beveridge of Cockpen, Midlothian, Scotland[1]. She was christened on March 24, 1850
On 07 Jul 1874, in Pembroke, Ontario, she married James Walker the son of James and Margaret Walker of Scotland[2], and they had children[3], including:
James died January 1, 1883 in Renfrew[8]. While Janet may have remarried, it appears more likely that she also died before the 1891 Census, as three of her children are shown as domestics in neighbouring homes: Robert[9], Jessie[10], and William [11]
