Hi my grandfather was James Burgess born 1882 Macclesfield, Cheshire, England. His brother was George Burgess and he was born at 38 Cumberland Street, Macclesfield, Cheshire.in 17-09-1878. He was still living there in the 1901 census and his occupation is listed as a (retired?)drugist/chemist his family was quite affluent. He moved to British Columbia not sure when but obviously after 1901 and he dropped dead whilst out there. I have little or no information on him as I am not sure if there was a family fall out. Unfortunately my grandfather had my father late in life and died when my dad was two so we have no information on George Burgess just his birth in the Family bible.
I believe he got married whilst in British Columbia and don't know if there were any children. As I still live in the Macclesfield area where on earth would I start to find information on George??
