Does not seem likely this George Bruce-3029 is a child of the parents he's attached to here (George & Euphen). These two parents spend their entire lives in Scotland and have 12 documented children there.
This George is said to be born in Virginia at nearly the same time as one of the documented Scotland born children.
Something is amiss???
This George G. Bruce was not related to John Robert Bruce and Sarah Caroline (Parrell) Bruce. They were both born in Scotland. All of their children were also born in Scotland and all of them were born there after 1713 which is when this George G. Bruce was born in Virginia. They did not return to Scotland to have the rest of their family and then return to Virginia. Their son George was born in Scotland as is shown by the record of his christening in 1722 in Aberdeenshire, Scotland as sourced in his profile, George Bruce.
