I do not know if the following will help

My kinswoman Anne Shaw of Wirksworth married Stephen Glover of Derby a Printer and Publisher/Author  of historic  books re The History of Derbyshire and other such works..After giving birth to one child namely Stephen Shaw Glover in 1817 Anne died and Stephen married again to Anne Milnes in 1819  They had children Francis Milnes Glover  William Glover  and then moved to Moreton The Wirral where John Edward Glover, Emma Jane and Edward Glover were born..Stephen senior continued to write books from Moreton buried in the Church there 1870  Could the George you mention be son of one of the sons of Stephen Glover ?

The full history is so much that to send by e mail is a problem..I often send by snail mail for the want of an address..I can give a brief outline, but then not knowing exactly what you require poses the problem..

The Wrights married into the Alsop family of Lea Bridge and Holloway who owned Lead Mines and a Smelting Mill  Alsops married into the Miller Wass family who opened up Mill Close Mine Darley Dale  in 1849 - 1933 where some of my kin worked way back in the 1750s when The London Lead Co owned the site  Today Enthoven's still Smelt Lead on the site... The Alsop family in turn married into the John Smedley Lea Mills family also related to Nightingales and Evans of Cromford Bridge House  Evans being Cotton Manufacturers at Darley Abbey Mills near Derby in the same era as Arkwrights...My Grt Grandfather Joseph Walker married 3 times his 3rd wife Martha Sheldon my true Grt Grandmother they married in 1869..  Walkers also owned Lead Mines in partnership with others in the Cromford area although my Grt Grandfather was a Master Stonemason and Building Contractor
