George Miner born 1867 Walsall

[Sally4x]

Hi  - would really appreciate some help. I am trying to complete my Miner family tree that my late dad started. George was born in 1867 in Walsall - the son of George Miner and Jane Jones. He is with his parents in Ryecroft Hilll on the 1871 and Rushall on the 1881 censuses. On the 1891 census he is still in Rushall with his mum after his dad died in 1887. He is 24 years old and is a saddlers ironmonger. I then can't find a trace of him at all. When his mum Jane died in 1907, he is an executor and still a saddlers ironmonger. I have ordered a copy of Jane's will which I am hoping has more information. I have looked for a marriage, census entries and a death for George, but can;t find anything. I have also scanned over immigration records, but nothing stands out.

Dad it seems was flummoxed as well because on the hand drawn tree he made he has a question mark under George! If anyone can find anything I would be so appreciative.

Thanks!

Thanks - I missed that when I looked for immigration. Yes that must be him. I had been looking in the USA!

And no I didn't have that newspaper article.

Thanks
