George was born in 1821 at Sedgefield, Durham. His parents were Lancelot Barron and Elizabeth Rawling. He was christened on 7 October 1821 at Sedgefield, Durham.^[1]

George married Betsey Wherrit about 1847 at Stockton-On-Tees, Durham.^[2]

George married Sarah Nicholson on 9 October 1854 at Leeds, St Peter, Yorkshire. Witnessed by William and Isabella Lamb. Isabella is Georges's wife's sister.^[3]

He was later listed as a Master Builder and reputedly left a "tidy sum" when he died. Not proved by his will which said £106-18s left to his widow Sarah and daughter Mary Elizabeth.
