FindMyPast have no results for George Bennett in Nottinghamshire in 1921.

ADDED:

There is a George Bennett with family living in Gravesend, Kent.  He is a Gardener and birthplace is given as Abbots Bromley.

Hi bigjon,

You haven’t given many clues about your grandad.  :-\

So this is my guess. As George’s family is in Mansfield in 1911 and the children were born in different counties I can see the son John Isaac was born in Shirebrook, Derbyshire = GRO  DecQ 1902 Mansfield R/D - mother’s maiden name Tenant. The family is living on Sherwood St, Mansfield Woodhouse by 1921.

It looks like George Bennett is living with Thomas & Charlotte Lambert at Clumber St, Shirebrook – Married & born Princes End, South Staffordshire, aged 58.
