  • Notes 
    • George, the eldest son of Thomas Milsted and Ann (nee Gregory), had a very short life, dying a little past his first wedding anniversary. He did, however, manage to father one child before his untimely end: Georgina, born during 1856.

      By 1871 George's wife, Emily, had remarried a man by the name of John Pepper, a labourer at the local cement works. By him she had an additional four children. Despite Georgina never having known her father, she must have be raised with his memory ever present as unlike other children of that time Georgina was always recorded with her correct birth surname - that of Milsted, on census and other contemporary records.
