Walter Wark

1780 -

• Name	Walter Wark
  Born	Around 1780
  Gender	Male
  Notes	Walter Wark, father of Walter Wark, was born sometime around 1780, probably in Scotland. Very little is known about him. The only known, verifiable records are for the births of his children. Walter married Janet Gill sometime around 1800. They had son Alexander Wark, born 29 Jan 1805 at Cockpen, Midlothian, Scotland (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XTP3-29H). Walter Wark, Jr. was born 2 Oct 1808 at Lasswade, Midlothian, Scotland (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XTRG-GX2 See Walter's record here). Lasswade is very near to Cockpen. There is another possible earlier child born to a Walter Work and Jenet Gill, born 06 Dec 1802 at Jedburgh, Roxburgh, Scotland (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XT17-SD7). Even though the names are a close match, this record is suspect primarily because Jedburgh is 40 miles Southeast of Lasswade.
