Thankyou. Does it say where the children were born? Emma in particular? And maybe Sarah? There are a few choices for George and Sarah marriage and I'm not sure which one it may be. Strange they called one of their children Eliza and one Elizabeth. George married a lady called Kate Paul who was a spinster in 1893.
Thanks
:-) :-)
