Grandfather, milkman and theatre attendant. One of 7 brothers, came to Walthamstow from Isham, Northampton, a small village about midway between Leicester and Cambridge.
Worked thirty years as a milkman at Express Dairy and was also an attendant at the Palace Theatre (either in Hoe Street, or High Street, Walthamstow). He exhibited his goldfish aquarium at local shows before his grandson was born.
With no dates on the plaque the only clues we have about Walton's dates are the erection of the plaque in 2015/16 by his grandson. Very, very approximately, if his grandson was about 50 when he erected the plaque then Walton was born c. 1900.
