I have come into the possession of a marvellous life history booklet, specially printed,about the life of George's brother, James Ernest. It makes for very sad but inspiring reading, about his tough life here, and his ever rougher life being passed from farm to farm with his eventual marriage in Canada and sad early death at age 33, having worked hard to become a surveyor.
Apparently our missing George attended Coleman St school, Shoreditch, but nothing concrete is known after 1900 when his father died - despite rumour of bandsmen or military.
I am now wondering if he was in the war and died in France or Belgium? More thinking needed......
