Best / Train - who were his parents
« on: Friday 22 February 13 02:48 GMT (UK) »
George Best married Jane Train (I think) in Newc. upon Tyne in October 1825. I am urgently seeking information on George and any of his siblings, family, etc. I believe they had 4 children (?) - Mary, George, Samuel and Isabella. That is the sum total of my information, so any help will be much appreciated.
