Commondyke, Muirkirk, Ayrshire, Scotland (United Kingdom)
Source: Daughter (Marian) birth certificate: Daughter (Marian) birth certificate in 1879 gives Georges age as 39 (=1840) at that stage (march 1879) assuming 1841 is correct he would have been 38.75 - nearly 39 - his birh place on that certificate is Muirkirk LDS ancestoral file AFN: KJLB-74 has this as "abt 1842" Commondyke, Ayr, Scotland.
George's death records [cemetery book - waikaraka park] gives his age as 60 when he died in 1900 = 1840 - but then - Waikaraka Park headstone gives 2 different ages given [60 & 61] Either way - this puts his dob at 1839-1840 +/-1
Based on the above facts i believe 1841 is a fair assumption.
