I dont as yet have any siblings for George Goree so that information is very interesting Dea, especially as the names Frederick and Edward run throughout the familes. Very much appreciated thankyou. Susan.

Hello Dea, hmmmm, well it all seems to fit. I was given the birth year of 1849 which meant he had two children by the ripe old age of 15! Thankyou very much for your time. Susan

Dea Report 23 Apr 2010 09:52

There are 2 other christenings with the same parents named so 'probably' siblings.

This may help you to decide if this is the correct one:

FREDERICK GOREE - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 25 DEC 1842 Walton On Thames, Surrey, England

EDWARD GOREE - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 25 JAN 1846 Walton On Thames, Surrey, England

Strange, this christening record from IGI would appear to fit but it is a little earlier that expected?

GEORGE GOREE

Extracted birth or christening record (So is usually fairly reliable) !!

His birth is not registered so again, this earlier birth would account for that fact.

Sorry, my mistake, i meant the year of birth. Susan

Catherine Report 23 Apr 2010 09:41

1901 gives his name as George Edward so that should help.
Date of births are not given on any records apart from the birth cert. which you would have to buy.

Please would someone give me the DOB of George Goree born Hersham Surrey about 1845. Parents Edward and Mary Goree. I have found it on Ancestry but my subscription does not allow me to view the record. Susan.
