George Delves was born 3 Aug 1779, he was married to Patience Lund 30 Jan 1804.
His parents John Delves + Sarah Bately, John's father Thomas Delves 'of Westminster'
After that the trail is dead.
A 'delve' is a clod of earth!
The Le Delve Cheshire family who my uncle has unsuccessfully tried to trace back to have three clods of earth on their family crest with the words 'I cannot' enscribed in latin underneath!
I have more info if your interested and could send you a gedcom file if you want.
