A Walter Urquhart is known to have been a carpenter of Georgetown Demerara c. 1835. Two of the smaller awards probably pertain to this man. The larger award, made to the executors of Walter Urquhart, appears out of scale with the other two, raising the question as to whether it is the same man. Walter Urquhart was reported to have bought an estate with Hubert Whitlock, brother of Edward Carlton Whitlock (q.v.), in 1830.
