Hi Jan I have got their marriage certificate Walter Albert Poole to Rose Wikinson in 1819 and she is down as a widow but I can't find a marriage for a Rose Wilson to a Wilkinson. Wilson was her maiden name her fathers name was John Wilson

You could do with their marriage cert for more info.

Poole Walter A Wilkinson Bethnal G. 1c 324
Wilkinson Rose Poole Bethnal G. 1c 324

Rose is said to be a Widow in the Army records

As I remember that is what it said I know Wajter Albert married a Rose Wilkinson in 1918 i have the certificate her fathers name was a John Wison on that certificate so I do not beleive the the child Born in 1817 Albert Wilkinson was the son of Walter Albert Poole
As the boys name was Wikinson but also I can't find a marriage for a Rose Wilson to a Wilkinson before he was born
Margaret

On the page of documents where Walter Poole's children are mentioned, there is note of an Albert Wilkinson born 16.9. 1917 ( year blurred) He was born in Shoreditch

There is a request dated 2.9.18 by the Officer in charge of Records for the birth certificate of Rose Poole.
Then there is a letter possibly dated 5.9.( page corner turned over) stating

Sir

I beg to inform you that I have only one child who I sent the birth certificate in with my marriage certificate. The child that you mention does not belong to me, but my husband told me that he was the father of the said child.
Yours faithfully
Mrs Poole.
