Biography

George Pink was born in Hampshire, England.

George Pink was born on 29 March 1847 in Colemore, Hampshire, England.^[1] His birth was registered as the son of Thomas Pink and Harriet Parter on 4 Apr 1847 at Petersfield, Hampshire. His mother, as the birth registration informant, signed her name with an `X' on the registration form, indicating that she couldn't write. This could explain the error in the record of her maiden name as Parter instead of Porter.^[2]

George was baptised on 31 October 1847 in Colmer, Hampshire, England, the son of Thomas Howick Pink, a labourer, & Harriet Pink.^[3][4]

The children were Herbert (15), a Farm Servant, Edith Olive (13), William George (11), Alice Pink (9), Alfred (5), all Scholars, and infants Anne Maud (3), Eveline May (1), Henry Phillip (3 months).^[13]

In the 1911 census on 2 April 1911, George, aged 64 and recorded as a 62-year-old Labourer on Roads for the Rural District Council, lived in the cottage, near the school at Colmore with Arabella and three of his children.
