George was was born in Sandhurst, in the Victorian (Australia) goldfields, in 1873.[1] He was the son of Joseph Newton and Mary Redden.

After 1891 Sandhurst reverted to its previous name of Bendigo.[2]
George Newton passed away in Bendigo, Victoria, in 1904, aged 31 years (death registration claims 28 years).[3]
