Biography

Walter was born and was then christened on 29 Mar 1818 at St John, Hackney and was the son of Henry Rutherford and Sarah.^{[1] [2]}

In 1841 Walter was living in Hackney with Sarah aged 25 and David H Rutherford (7 months). This actually looks like a large extended family but I find the record hard to read. Walter Rutherford 25 Sarah 23 or 25 David H 70 (maybe?) Henry Rutherford 50 Sarah 50 Sarah 20 Thomas 16 (Gardener?) Henry(?) 10 George 8 Caroline 5^[3][4]

In 1871 Walter was an accountant visiting 133 Garlands Road, Reigate^[5]

Walter died in 1877 in the City of London^[6]
