• Notes

  According to family sources, George William was apparently the only bad-tempered one of the entire family group. He ran away to sea when he was only 14. After his marriage to Emily they were both given to imbibing heavily. By the time their fourth child, George Alexander, was born, George William had become a publican and licenced victualler of the Shipwright's Arms by 1901. All of the children of George William had golden hair. Florence Mary had a child out of wedlock who goes by the name of George Gregory. She later married but no details are known. Winifred Mary also married and had two children: one, a daughter, Vera; and, the other unknown as to sex or name.
