George Lanning was paying land tax on a house in George Street, off Oxford Street, in the 1830s. His mother was living in the same street at least between 1841 and 1851.
George's youngest children were block christened after his wife had died, in 1840. They are given an address in Tottenham St. Whether they moved there temporarily, or whether some friend or relation had taken them in and decided they ought to be "done" we can only speculate.
