Person:George Denyer (1)

George Denyer was baptised on 26th June 1808 at Pagham on the Sussex coast, son of Thomas and Sarah Denyer.

The 1841 census finds George working as an agricultural labourer and living in the hamlet of Rose Green in Pagham. Later that year, aged 33, he married Harriet Horton, who was from the neighbouring parish of Merston. They settled in Pagham and had several children there. The 1851 census finds them living at Lagness, between Rose Green and Merston. By 1861 they had returned to Rose Green, where they appear to have lived the rest of their lives, appearing there in each census from 1861 to 1891. George worked as an agricultural labourer.

George died aged 83, being buried at Pagham on 14th February 1892. Harriet survived him by about fourteen years.
