In 1851 George was one of 2 children living with parents John and Elizabeth in 'East Dean - Cinderford Iron Works'. (Berry Hill is in West Dean). John was a labourer at Iron Works. [2]

Research Note

Research Note: There is no evidence that George was married to Caroline (McVay) Hughes (1839-1885). Catherine's husband George Hughes was listed as being born in Pennsylvania. Therefore she is removed as George's wife.
