Biography

The LDS Ancestral File states that George was born in 1658 in Hull, married Hannah (abt 1688) and had three children: Hannah (christened Hull, 3/12/1691), George (christened 16/1/1689 'of Skirlington') and Thomas (christened Nov 1696 Hull died 29 Dec 1767). I have been unable to verify these baptisms. The Family Search website records the deaths of several children of George (although of which George is not clear): Hannah (4 Feb 1692), Elizabeth (1 Jun 1695), Thomas (21 Jun 1697), Dorothy ( 23 Apr 1704), and William (28 May 1707).

It can be assumed of the three children listed in the Ancestral File, Hannah and Thomas died early. The Ancestral File incorrectly states that Thomas (b 1696) married Anne Stork in 1722 and settled in Driffield. This Thomas was the son of John Etherington (d 1720) of Driffield and was baptised there in 1697.
