    • In the PR in 1839 at the time his son George was baptised (acc to KFHS CD 19)
    Residence From 1841 to 1851  Silver Street, Bredgar, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • In 1841 George was with his wife and 4 children (Charlotte, Caroline, Isabell and George); still in Silver Street in 1851, now with Isabell, George, Michael and Frances.
      Could have been in the same street earlier, but his residence was simply given as "Bredgar" at the time his children were baptised (1822 - 1839).
    Occupation 1841 
    Ag. lab. 
    • Labourer (type unspecified) in the PR entries for the baptism of his children, 1822- 1837 (note change in 1839)

    • In 1871 as well as his wife George was with his "nephew" Albert Goodhew, actually the grandson of his sister Maria, son of her son Amos. Amos had been widowed in 1868, his wife dying the same quarter that Albert was born, so probably as a result of childbirth, and was not to remarry until 1880. No doubt William and Frances took in Albert because Amos was unable to cope with the need to work and a young baby.
    Occupation From 1861 to 1881 
    Carpenter 
    • Having had other occupations, George appears to have returned to that he had earlier in his life, being shown as a carpenter on the 1861, 1871 and 1881 censuses.
