I do not have M/C George Miles was born in Oxford. I think they got married in Shipston On Stour. Or in that area.He was born in 1861.
I only know his wife was called Annie

1901 George and Annie in Aston, B'ham with their children; Annie b approx 1855.

From birthplaces of their children, probably on Oxf/Glouc/Wark borders in 1891.

1881 has a couple of alternatives:

GH Miles son of R&J as above, still living with his parents; or

George Miles, aged 20 lodger in Brailes, born in Oxf but parish of birth not particularly legible - transcribed as Intont!

OK, checked back to 1891 - the one born in 1864 is a patient in St Giles in 1891.

1871/1861: choosing George Mil*s born in Oxfordshire gives just a few to choose from - either Mills or Miles, and some of these swap from one census to another. The one born in Signett/Lynett has gone to Berkshire; the one born in Milton to Alfred seems not to be the one you are chasing. One born in Kidlington/Ruddleton could be the "Hodington" noted in 1891 - son of John and Mary. However, there are also a couple of George Mills born in Oxford whose age fits more precisely.
