have you found George 1849 on any census before he married Rosa

perhaps the marriage certificate of George (1887) and Rosa would be a good place to start to confirm George's father's name & occupation

see thread on Mary Stockley

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1284306

better to keep everything together Samantha so that all the info searches are not duplicated and all the references are in one place

eg the link for the actual parish record image of Mary's marriage
