Have added some details and as have had no reply will remove from parents, Cole-8207 and Clarke-5644 in order to add George Cole born in Kimbolton to these parents .He was living with his brothers and parents in East Haddon Northamptonshire at the same time that this George Cole was living in Chippenham where he was born.
I do think that the elderly William and Ann who appear with George Cowl (sic) on the 1841 census are worth investigating as possible parents. See ancestry sharing image on previous comment
Could this be George in the 1841 Census?(note that there are children, Benjamin, Eliza, William and James? Is it possible that William and Ann are his parents? ancestry sharing image
Please see my notes on 'father' John. I think that this is a conflation of two men. There was a George who was buried in East Haddon in 1881, he was the son of a John and (probably )Ann Clarke of Potton but he seems to have been born in Kimbolton in Huntingdonshire. He married an Ann Dunkley in East Haddon in 1833 and together they had children including , Charles, 1836, Thomas, 1838 and Henry 1844. His brothers William and Charles also born in Kimbolton lived in East Haddon
George Cole of Chippenham seems to be a different man and I can't see a relationship to the Kimbolton/East Haddon family .In 1891, a George Cole born in Chippenham in 1809 ,aged 82 was an inmate in the Newmarket Workhouse. "England Marriages, 1538–1973 ", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NNGB-MT5 : 12 March 2020), George Cole, 1833
This is ten years after the death of George Cole in East Haddon
Unless I'm missing something, I think the death place and location should be removed and George + wife and family h should be unlinked from these parents. I'll then add the George born in Kimboltom to John and Ann.
