Hi David, what are the earliest records that you have to place George in Well Street please?
Jo  :)

Also, the known names of his children?


Hello!! Very sorry not sure I ever saw this or responded.

1 am 100% of my George Frederick Taylor who lived at 126 Well Street and was married to Caroline Truth Broadbridge. their children were

Caroline
Charles
George
Alice
Clara
Arthur
Albert
Matilda

George Frederick's parents were George Taylor (1783-1836)and Grace Manning.. They married at St Leonard's Shoreditch in 1804 but lived at Well Street Hackney... Grace was from Culmstock Devon...

Their kids were
George Frederick
Catherine
Kitty
John
Alfred

All died young except for George Frederick and Catherine which is VERY luck for me as 2 of their children married and became my GG Grandparents!!!

Before this its just guessing.. I saw an Old Bailey record referring to Mr George and Mrs Elizabeth Taylor of Well Street, Hackney from 1770's (?), which my gut tells me are the parents of George (1783-1836), possibly George Taylor and Elizabeth Hopkins, but I have no proof and haven't been able to find any with a name a common as George Taylor  :'(

What years and where please, I do have one circa late 1700s probably east end/London area.
Sorry found details on page one.
I think my Elizabeth Hopkins married William Jones 1794, however, may have matched her to the wrong husband.
