George Bayley (Bailey) born circa 1770 Hartpury

I have been researching the Bailey family of Hartpury and Ashelworth (Ashleworth) for some years but I have constantly drawn a blank on George Bayley's parentage. George b.1770/71 in Hartpury married Esther Biggs of Hartpury in 1792. There are various possible candidates in Lassington and Hartpury which may be George's parents but I cannot confirm the connection. It may be that George was known by another name i.e. "William George". If anyone can enlighten me as to his parents or his family line I would be grateful.

For additional information which may help in identification:- George became a stone mason, and later a bricklayer. His many children married into the Capper, Ferris, Travell, Broadstock, Hiam families of Hartpury and Corse. In his later years George resided with his son Joseph in Orridge Street, Corse. George died in 1854 in Corse.

Many thanks
