Many thanks.

I obtained a copy of George's death certificate, details are:

Sub-district of St. Nicholas, City of Gloucester

When died: 1st March 1854
Where died: Union Workhouse Gloucester
Name: George Bailey
Age: 84
Occupation: former husbandman
Cause: Debility from old Age
Informant: Eleanor Eskine - in attendance

This confirms the 1851 Census of George residing in the Union Workhouse which records his place of birth as Quedgeley, therefore George must be the son of John Bailey and Esther (nee Medway) of Quedgeley.

Next step is finding John's birth and parentage. John born in Saul in the neighbouring parish seems a likely candidate.

Once again, many thanks

Keith Bailey
