George came to BC from the north of Ireland in 1886. He homesteaded a farm in Langley in the Coghlan area of Langley, but spent many years working in the Cariboo, running Hat Creek House and Hat Creek Ranch with his wife, Elizabeth Culbert, who he married in 1897. In 1902 George and Elizabeth returned to Langley and George purchased a farm on what is now 216th Street from his father-in-law, Thomas Culbert, and they developed a dairy farm.

George died in Milner on February 26, 1933 at the age of 69.
