General Notes
This is the unrelated George and Eliza family from Dronfield, Yorkshire who had a daughter Emily (1863-1888). The three are buried together at Sheffield with headstone. George was much older than his wife!
Birth registrations show the MMN = Walter whjich explains Joseph's middle name. However, in 1849, George married Elizabeth Mosley at Chesterfield, so she may have been a widow (tbc).
In 1871, George and Eliza (57 & 28) were farming 6 acres at Norton (SW Sheffield, Yorkshire) with Mary A (18), William H (15) from earlier marriage, and Emily, Elizabeth and Eliza A (7, 3, and 1) from Eliza.
