March was a good month for extending the family tree. I managed to find four older siblings for my great great great grandfather George George. George, son of George George, a baker, and Mary, was born in 1813 and baptised the following the year. There is a candidate marriage between a George George and Mary Fage in 1805, leaving a gap of eight years before the first known child was born.
