I have been trying for some time to find more about George (Bragge) Taylor who married Ann Trim c1841 in Stour Provost, Dorset. One known son, Edgar Charles Taylor, born c 1844 in Gillingham, who married Emma Bartley.

They had 2 children - Charles Harold Taylor, (my grandfather) and Mary Gwendoline Taylor.

When George Taylor married Ann Trim their known witness was Caleb Taylor. Do not know whether he was George's father, brother, cousin etc. Does anyone know any more about George Taylor or Caleb Taylor?

A copy of the cert should show his fathers name to see if family in 1841 census below is correct
