George Edwin DULSON
Set As Default Person -
Name George Edwin DULSON Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 14 Dec 1864 Shifnal, Shropshire, England
- From 1891-1911 censuses; actual date and month from 1939 register, though it shows 1865 when he must have been born in 1864.
GRO ref: ASTBURY, George Edwin q1 1865 Shiffnal RD 6A 594; GRO online index does not show a mother's maiden name, suggesting he was illegitimate
Not only is the above the only birth registration of a George Edwin with any surname in Shifnal RD around the right time, but the 2 marriage PR entries I've seen both show his father as William Dulston [sic], an engineer, though a Henry Astbury was a witness to one.
It appears that George's mother and father or step-father married shortly after his birth.
GRO ref: Dulston, William to Astbury, Mary Ann q1 1865 Wellington Sh RD 6a 1127
George was shown as an Astbury in the 1871 census, but in 1881 his parents gave his surname as Dulston.
