George Burrows I was married to Alice Burrows. They had a son George Burrows II who went into partnership with his mother Alice in 1801. The mark for this is usually AB over GB. George Burrows entered many marks as a buckle-maker between 1780 and 1799. There are many makers with the initials GB so it is not always easy to distinguish between them.
