Biography
George Brown was listed in the Absent Voter Records for Abbots Langley in Autumn 1918 and Spring 1919. He was initially identified from the Absent Voter Records and was not recorded elsewhere in the Abbots Langley Parish records. In the Absent Voter Records George was listed serving with the Royal Engineers and his address was given at Abbots Road, Abbots Langley.
George was born in the summer of 1899 at Wanstead in London. In the 1911 Census he was recorded as an Inmate at the Infant Orphan Asylum, Woodford Road, Wanstead. It is not known how George came to return to Abbots Langley after the War and to give his address at Abbots Road. Maybe he had an association with the Leavesden Asylum or the St Pancras Schools?
George Brown survived the War.
