Sorry, I suspect that this is not the right George. There was a George Mills born in Adderley Road, Saltley, on 5 Aug 1868 to Joseph and Ann, but this George (I think) was buried on 11 Mar 1869 age 5 months. The same parents baptised another George (born 5 Jan 1872), but this George (again, I think) was also buried, on 6 Jun 1873 aged 18 months. This information from the registers of St Saviour's, Saltley. On 23/01/07, Douglas Hawkes <dhawkes@ee.ryerson.ca> wrote: > > Hi Malcolm, > > George turned out to be older than I thought.
