Hi Chris,
George Morgan's father was James Morgan, a collier, and his mother was Ann(e)Wood.
George's brother, Henry Morgan, born in 1822 in Coleford, is my grandfather x3. Henry married Maria Hamblin on 24/12/1840 and their first child, Moses, born 1843 is my grandfather x2.
Moses eventually left the Forest of Dean area and migrated North, working at Usworth colliery, then at Newbattle colliery in Dalkeith, Scotland, before settling in Durham City.
One of his son's, John, born c1882/4 (still can't track his birth certificate down as the family moved around so much!)is my g grandfather. He married in 1903 and his first child, John William Moses Morgan born 1904 was my grandfather.
