George Edwards was baptised on 8th March 1835 at Pagham in Sussex, son of Sarah Ann Edwards, formerly Hammond, and her husband John Edwards, an agricultural labourer. George's baptism notes that the family lived in the hamlet of Lagness. Both George's maternal grandparents were still alive and living at Lagness at this time. George was the third of nine children, and the eldest son.
Some time between 1837 and 1840 George's parents left Lagness, moving to Bramber, in the neighbouring parish of North Mundham. The 1841 census finds George living with his parents and siblings at Bramber. Some time between 1842 and 1843 the family moved again to Runcton, also in North Mundham parish. They moved again some time between 1845 and 1848 to the neighbouring parish of Sidlesham, where they appear in the 1851 census living at Chalder. By this time George was working as an agricultural labourer.
In 1858 George's maternal grandmother died, followed two years later by George's maternal grandfather.
The family stayed at Chalder for some years, appearing there in both the 1861 and 1871 censuses. George's father died in 1872, after which George moved with his mother, his brother John, his sister Sarah and her daughter to Street End in Sidlesham, where they appear in the 1881 census. George never married. The 1881 census notes that he had a withered arm.
By 1891 the family had moved to Church Lane in Sidlesham. George died aged 62, being buried at Sidlesham on 1st October 1897. His mother survived him.
