THOMAS WADDINGTON, _Penketh_. 49 9mo. 3 1850 JOHN WAITHMAN, _Yealand_. 49 11mo. 2 1849 MARIA WALKER, _Wooldale_, _Yorkshire_. Daughter of Samuel Walker. 24 10mo. 18 1849 HANNAH WALKER, _Dirtcar_, _Wakefield_. Wife of Robert Walker. 68 4mo. 3 1850 BARBARA WALLER, _York_. 70 11mo. 13 1849 The quiet acquiescence of this dear friend, in the divine will, under changes of circumstances involving, to her energetic and lively mind, much suffering, appeared to many of her immediate friends, deeply instructive. In early life, she was, for several years, resident in the family of her brother Stephen Waller, at Clapton; and during the long continued illness of his wife, took charge of the family, including an interesting group of young children, between whom and herself the tenderest affection subsisted. On the restoration of her sister's health, she came to reside with her brother Robert Waller, of York. |
