Wallinger Family
- Buckinghamshire ( County, BKM, Bucks England)
I am trying to trace a George WALLINGER who I think may have been baptised in Sherington, Bucks in 1842. One of my ancestors, Maria HIGGS, married a George WALLINGER in Loughton, Bucks in 1865, when she was 21 and he was 22, so I think this must be the one. I can find no trace of them on the 1881 census, and would be grateful for any help in tracing them.
