According to the marriage certificate for Frederick Irwin,
his father was George Irwin. The 1871 census shows a Jane Ann
Irwin, as a domestic servant, staying in the house then, just after
one of their children was born. It was not unusual for relatives to act as
domestic servants - and a new born baby would be a good reason for wanting
someone to help. Jane's parents were George Irwin and Ann Curry, who I
have traced to Allendale. Whilst there is, as yet, no conclusive
proof, it seems more likely than not that George is also
Frederick's father. Furthermore, George and his father Benjamin have
engineering backgrounds, a tradition carried on down the Irwin line.
