NOTE

George, a Labourer, was born c 1824 at St. Blazey, Cornwall & died in 1892. His Death record can be seen here.

According to her death record Page 1 & 2 Charity died from Brights Disease.

Their last 4 children, although recorded with Charity & George in the 71 & 81 census are I suspect not theres. There is a gap of 11 yrs between John & Anna & I can't find any of these last 4 children's birth or death records between 1869 & 1907. Although, having said all this, Julia Ann does state her parents are George & Charity on her marriage record.

The family was living at Whitby, Ontario in the 1851 census.
