Biography:

1. George Coleman, in a Report dated the 8th May 1801 (Supply 5/221) ws shown as a Labourer who earned 1/6d per day. This Return also recorded that he was a married man with 1 child. 2. A Return of Artificers and Labourers dated the 3rd November 1801 (also Supply 5/221) stated that he was employed as a Labourer at the Cylinder Houses in Sussex. The same document said that since the cylinders had been out of repair, Coleman had been employed in stacking timber in the yards and levelling and preparing the ground where the cylinders were to be resited, but "…it is possible that they [he] will go to Faversham as has been done heretofore, or their [his] business will be terminated."
