Look up please for George Burkey the only info I have is as follows

1881 census
Age 35 b: c 1846 L'pool Head occ: Boatman (Barge)
who are the other family members on this census,
Cant find him on any other census I am aware that boatmen move around the country so could be anywhere and do not always have there family with them.

Any help what so ever would be a great help to me.

many thanks
Ann
