Hi

The reason I deleted was because I looked up his marriage and posted the ref then realised you already had it

thx ambers

as far as I can find out george was a bit of a black sheep  :'(
don't quite understand why, as his mother (my relative) died when he was only 6  :(

but of course this makes me more intrigued to find out about him and hope he had a happy life.........

it seems he moved way away from the family home and settled in cardiff

Your welcome :)

Black sheep are always very interesting...poor little soul had a bad start with his mum dead by the time he was six :-[

Maybe you could trace his children's marriages through BMD indexes, long job, but well worthwhile sometimes. If they remained in Cardiff it might be quite easy, as the name is unusual for that area

Hello,
I think I can help with this! George Scales was my great grandfather and was indeed the black sheep of the family.
It would be really interesting to know more about the Scales family and I can give you the history of what happened to George after he came to Cardiff.
