List:
Would anyone know anything about the parents / paternal - maternal
grandparents of David Lloyd George below?
He was born 1913 but I have his father, Charles Edmund George married later
in 1920 to a Mrs. Maud Lorette who possibly may be nee Shipley.
David Lloyd George's death record says his parents were Charles George and
Maude Shipley.
Any help would be appreciated.

PARRSBORO SEAMAN DIES IN ACCIDENT
Missing since late Saturday night, the body of Lloyd George, 25, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Charles George of this town was found by Joseph Kendrick about
10:30 Sunday night, in the dock of the Lincoln Pulpwood Company. On Sunday
evening when his parents first gave notice of alarm about his disappearance,
a search party was formed under the RCMP and a search was made of the water
front where he was last seen.

The deceased is survived by his parents and one brother, Peter George. The
funeral will be held on Wednesday. Accidental death caused by falling off
the wharf in the darkness and becoming smothered in the mud at ebb tide was
the verdict given.
