Yorks (ie about 1811 – did he just get his age wrong?
There is no record of a different George born in 1811).

Mary Farndale, age 80, born in Yorks (ie about 1761). It would be assumed this was his mother,
but his mother was Jane. There is a Mary Farndale born in 1761 (FAR00196) although she married
John Frankland in 1785 – she was also quite a distant relative to George, but
could she have been widowed and ended up living with George?
