Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 102 Send Message	Looking for any info about George W McArthur, I know he was born about 1826 in Edinburgh he married Mary Anne Miller not sure when Mary was born in 1834 Bowness on Solway in Cumberland. George was a Lithographic Printer and must have moved to London as that is where the work was, In the 1861 census he is in Newington in Surray George W Mcarthur 35 Mary A McArthur 27 Ann McArthur 4 George McArthur 2 In the 1871 census Gorge is in Islington, George McArthur 44 Mary Ann Arthur 47 Annie Artur 14 George Arthur 12, Looking for any more information Birth,Wedding,Death,Census, in the 1881 census for Mary Mcarthur in in St Martin in the fields as a widower, but in 1874 I think it was, a George William McArthur Lithographic printer married in London is this correct any help would be appreciated.

	The George William who married in 1874 is likely his son. The record states father's name as George William, printer.

Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 46,113 Send Message	SylviaInCanada	Report	17 Sep 2010 21:14
	MargaretM suggested at 20:43 (5th posting down) that THAT George William who married in 1874 was the SON of George William born ca 1826 The image says his father was a Printer sylvia

Member Since: April 2006 Posts: 102 Send Message	George William McArthur 1826- his son George McArthur born 1859 if he had married in 1874 he would have 15 years old
Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 23,482 Send Message	MargaretM	Report	17 Sep 2010 21:34
	OK, not him then, it does say full age. But it does also say he's a bachelor so couldn't be the father, surely?

	well, I suppose it could if he had never married Mary Ann .................. technically at least he was still a Bachelor we need to find them on a census to see how old that George William is/was but I did try that earlier without any success. Actually Brian ...... you could solve the problem by buying the marriage certificates. sylvia
