Notes - Like many of the people in this tree, there is some speculation. But assuming George did not travel far, the details do all make sense. His age at burial matches his baptism, and there are no other children born other than William.
He signs his own name on the marriage register, which is unusual.
Many of the other members of the family seem to use Sailor and Publican interchangeably, and this probably means they were involved in smuggling. Whether this applies to George or not, I suspect that his early death was the result of an accident or a fight.
