George Thomson b. 1856 Aberdeenshire, m. Mable Lily Mitford Johnson b. 1869

George Thomson moved to South Africa, and married Mable in 1895 at Fordsburg,
Johannesburg. He may have been a miner.
They had a daughter, Barbara Muriel Alfreda Thomson, b. abt 1920
George died in 1928.
Mable died in 1943, Barbara was her sole beneficiary.
There were a lot of George Thomson's born in Scotland....I hope this might 'ring a
bell' with someone!

I am sure it does to someone somewhere, I was just chatting with a George Thomson the other night in this chat room but I am sure it was a different one, as he is in his twenties and your George would be about 170 by now, which is why its so funny I came across this post about a guy with the same name while doing some research on my family tree.

EDIT I have seen the Marriage, 39/25 and Widower/Spinster.
Must be other children if married 1895?
