[TD="colspan: 6"] Marriages Sep 1875

[/TD]


Drusilla was George’s second wife - on the 1911 census she says she has had 3 children who are still living.

The children born before 1875 are by George’s first wife (probably Elizabeth) if 1871 census below is correct and if it is it looks like both George and Elizabeth have been married previously

George Harper married Elizabeth Jordan September quarter 1867 Aston 6d 313
