Father George Charles TAYLOR, b. 18 Jun 1811, Shoreditch, Middlesex Relationship natural Mother Margaret Maria CLARK, b. 10 Feb 1827, Sanders Gardens, Shoreditch, Middlesex Relationship natural Marriage 24 Nov 1850 Parish Church, Bethnal Green, Middlesex [5] Notes - Logic for this marr to Margaret Clark is as follows:-
1. There is only one Leonard Taylor born abt 1868 in 1871 or 1881 census, and he is living with parents George and Margaret. George and Margaret Taylor for censuses of 1861 and 1871 are at 36 Bacon St, ie the address where Leonard Taylor is born in 1868.
2. Therefore Margaret's maiden name is Clark.
3. Margaret first appears on the scene for the 1851 Census.
4. The only marriage between George Taylor and Margaret Clark is in 1850 as here

Notes - There are no unambiguous records of George after 1881. There is no clear census record, but no obvious death in the FreeBMD indices either. There is a George William who married Annie Louisa ELLISS 9/9/1888 and his occupation is given as a carman, which matches 1881 Census. But his father is a "wood chopper" which in general does not match the weaver occupations (though note he is a carpenter at Elizabeth's marriage); and the marriage date is after the most likely death date, though the marriage record may have just not mentioned a decd father.
However the 1911 Census does look consistent and so is recorded here as probably likely...
