I don't think George knew when he was born or how old he and his wife Hannah/Annie actually were, evidenced by the birth cert's. of some of their children, he said they were both 35 years old on several of them? I've spent years looking for both of them, They lost 2 daughters with burns, little Charlotte in NSW and Margaret in Qld. George's occupation on several BC's was a miner or labourer. Several of their children lived and were married in Forbes." Note: Although unclear, the number of children included in the death certificate for George appears to be nine.

Note: In the bigamy trial of Theodore Arthur De Meur, Elizabeth stated that she was about 15 years of age at the time of this marriage. Parents names are not cited in the marriage record cited, but it states that she was a native of Lincolnshire. However, the records cited for her next marriage and her death adds support to the view that this is the right Elizabeth Smith.
