Great Great Uncle William 'Willie' George Mutters

My Great Great Uncle Willie (1898 - 1910) was the younger brother and youngest sibling of my Great Grandmother Violet Grace Mutters (1894 - 1953).

William 'Willie' George Mutters was born on 25th March 1898, in Woodbury, Devon, to George Mutters (32), a mason and bricklayer, and Emma Mutters (nee Brealey) (42), a dressmaker.

Willie, along with his brothers, was given the middle name George, likely after their father.

Willie was the youngest of seven children (4 daughters and 3 sons):

• Charlotte Irene  1888 - 1890 (1 year)
• Henry George  1889 - 1889 (0 - 3 months)
• Lily Emmeline  1890 - 1970 (79 years)
• Charles 'Charlie' George  1892 - 1970 (78 years)
• Violet Grace  1894 - 1953 (58 years)
• Anna/Anne  1896 - 1896 (2 - 4 months)
• William 'Willie' George  1898 - 1910 (11 years)

Before Willie was born, three of his elder siblings - Charlotte, Henry and Anna/Anne - passed away as infants, leaving Willie the youngest of four surviving siblings.
