GEORGE BAYLISS DEAN/JOS GRINDON/WESTBURY COURT (General)

Can anyone please help with information re George Bayliss Dean bap 1834 in Kingswinford, Staffs. George was one of 7 children bn to Timothy Dean and Sarah Hall. George m Mary Ann Baker in Westbury on Severn in 1859; witnesses were Joseph Grindon and Hannah Martin. George and Mary Ann had a dtr - Florence Elizabeth bn 1860 in Bilstree Green, Glos but I can't find Bilstree Green or any record of the birth of Florence anywhere in England. Family rumour has it that Florence went back to the Forest of Dean from Kingswinford and later had a son, Alfred Wooldridge Dean, who then took the surname of Ennis when Florence m Horace Ennis. Rumour also indicates a connection with Westbury Court. maybe Florence, George or Mary Ann worked on the estate. I also wondered if George worked for or with Joseph Grindon?

I have really hit the "brick wall" and would be so pleased to hear if any of these names rings a bell. Thank you, Jan Coleman.
