Yes it does. I have traced my family tree for many years and never sought professional help but this was particularly difficult & I hot the west Yorkshire archive service to do a bit of research. All the asylum info came from them and they made this connection. They weren't definite but thought that the probability leaned in this direction and I just can't find another george fitting - still trying though!

I can find George living Wortley 1901 as a lodger. Cannot find his death and I can't find him on the 1911 but there is a George dying Stanley Royd asylum 1912 of the right age and occupation. This George's next of kin is Susan. Yet there is no marriage for them and her husband is never on the census. In the absence of a death for my George it seems possible but I am not 100% hence the post on here

I didn't know about Nora and that is a potential problem because George born follifoot was living with someone called Kate dickinson as his wife on the 1891 but there is no marriage to either Kate or susan that I can find. George was still with Jane my great grandmother in 1881 but he left them after that.

The George born Follifoot 1843 lives in wortley Leeds. I cannot find his death except there is a George of the right age who died Stanley royd assylum 1912 Next of kin Susan Dickinson and his son Arthur writes to the asylum. Where was susan's husband on all the censuses? if he was my George was he living with other women bearing in mind he had deserted his first family.

I am trying to find more about my great grandfather George Dickinson.  Born Follifoot, Yorkshire 1843. Married Jane Weatherill and had seven children: Charles, Martha Ann, Edmond, Walter, Louisa (my grandmother married James Wilks) Emily and Frank.  After the 1881 census he left and deserted this family. He then seems to be with a Susannah/Susan Dickinson, although I cannot find a marriage, but there were two children Arthur & Florence.  In 1891 he was living with someone called Kate in Wortley and in 1901 he is a lodger with a Fanny Casson. He dies in Stanley Royd Asylum, Wakefield in 1912 next of kin Susan!  Just wondering if anyone knows anything of these women, or if there was another George born Follifoot area at the same kind of time.

HI, This is very interesting.  I think George is my Great grandfather but not with Susan/Susannah. He was born in Follifoot and had a family before he met Susannah. I am about 90% certain that Susannah's husband is my great grandfather. In the first instance I would be interested to know if you have ever found a marriage for them or any information at all would be really helpful.
