Thanks Sue for your help. My George MILLS has a brother living with him (in Aston Blank nor far from Farmington ) William Mills b 1822 according the Aston Blank Census of 1851. I am trying to link these two together. At the moment George Mills b 1816 is not connected to any of the people in Aston Blank although there appear to be only one family of that name at the time. Thomas and Sarah Mills were married in Farmington in 1819 according to the Gloustershire Marriage index. If this George is their son then where was born and could he be the son of The widow Thomas and some other woman. So many question . Is this George the brother of an unrelated William or is he the brother of my William? If any one has any ideas let me know. Thanks for your interest and help Pamela
