  Occupation	Gardener
  	1864	Kimmerby(?), Ireland
  	At time of marr (on cert.)
  Residence	1866	Southgate, Chichester, Sussex, England
  	From the PR entry when his son George was baptised
  Occupation	Between 1867 and 1886	Westfield Market Garden, Ealing, Middlesex, England
  	(the date here refers to sometime between these dates, not the whole of this period) George worked at this Market Garden according to his granddaughter, Ivy Hambling, although she did not know him personally (he died about 17 years before she was born) so she can only have been remembering being told this. Assuming it is correct he seems to have found different employment before he died, but that is certainly feasible; although he died quite young he was in the London area for nearly 20 years before his death.
  Moved	From Sussex to the London area
  	1868	Fulham, London, England
  	His second son was born in Sussex in June but baptised in Hammersmith in October 1868, but with the abode shown as Fulham, suggesting George and his family moved between these two dates.
  Residence	1871	5, Providence Terrace, Kensington, London, England
  	At the time of the census (2 / 3 April), also when his son Harry was baptised in the same year (2 May), when the place was given as Earls Court rather than Kensington. Another family (4 people) were also living in the same house.
  Occupation	Gardener
  	1871	Kensington, London, England
  	Then the Brentford area; "gentleman's gardener" on dth cert
  Residence	1881	5, Angel Yard, Brentford End, Isleworth, Middlesex, England
  	With his wife, 5 children and a lodger
  Occupation	Gardener
  	1881	(possibly), Syon Park, Brentford, Middlesex, England
  	George's home at the time of the 1881 census was 5 Angel Yard, Brentford End. There were gardeners living at other houses in Angel Yard and the following entry was the gardener's house at Sion (Syon) Park. Did George (also) work there?
  Died	Cause: Died of Phthisis
  	17 May 1886	2, Enfield Road, Brentford, Middlesex, England
  	GRO ref: q2 1886 Brentford 3a 52 I imagine the place he died was the family home at the time. Cause of death according to his death certificate (this was probably TB).
  Buried	South Ealing Cemetery, Ealing, Middlesex, England
  	from an "In memoriam" card
  Notes	Family Bible records the births of George and Mary's children, and a few deaths.
