In 1881 George Hall is listed as a watchmaker living at 56 Ashburner Street Bolton with his Father and family, a decade before in 1871 he was listed as an Apprentice Watchmaker at 63-65 Great Moor St.
However by 1891 he had changed professions and was a shoemaker.
It is likely that he made components rather than complete watches.
There are no known examples of his work.
