Hi, can anyone out there help me find out the occupation of George Ernest Young for the year 1883 or there abouts. He was born in 1858, Bath Somerset. Married to Elizabeth Magrath 4th September 1883, Westminster, London. Had 3 children that I know of, Ellen born 1888, William born 1889 and George born 1892. A possible year of death for him is 1900. Any help what so ever would be great.
Regards Carolyn
