George was born in about 1824 at Pamber, Hants, to James and Ann Simpson. In 1841, aged 15, he was living with his parents and siblings at Paynes Peak, about a 2 miles southeast of Odiham[1]. In 1849 he married Lucy Herridge, and in 1861 they were living with their children on Readen Farm, about 1 mile southeast of Odiham[3].

In 1881, George was living with his wife and some of his family on Horsedown Common, near Odiham[5]. By 1901, he was working as gardener and domestic servant at St Stephen's School (near St Stephens Road, Castlebar Road & Pitshanger Lane) in Ealing, and his wife Lucy as housekeeper[7].

George & Lucy are buried in Perivale churchyard, to the left of the path leading to the porch[10].
