Our Wallwork History To date I have traced our Wallwork bloodline back to Richard and Elizabeth Wallwork from Broomhouse Lane, Pendleton. See the Wallwork page below for more information. This website is dedicated to Bernard and Ruth Wallwork and all their ancestors and descendants. My Father Bernard Wallwork told me most of the family history, as it was passed down to him from his grandfather Henry Wallwork, pictured seated on this backdrop, with my Grandfather Joseph Wallwork. I had the help of my Uncle Leo Wallwork who lived in Tasmania and my Auntie Joan Wallwork from Wigan, wife of my Fathers brother Eric Wallwork, cousin Veronica, along with other special family members, to whom I am greatly thankful for their help in preserving our family history for us and future generations to enjoy. This family tree starts from my parents generation working backward in history. Using the 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901, 1911 Census, Birth, Death and Marriage certificates, Parish Registers, Grave records and inscriptions, I.G.I records, Wills, newspapers, photographs and study of local history as documentation.
