These two George GINN's have become confused in a lot of internet trees and on Geni

George Ginn
* born 7/10/1847 Longford, Tasmania, Australia
* died 10/10/1912 Launceston, Tasmania, Australia
* father James Ginn (1813 England -1885 Australia)
* mother Jane Ginn (1825 Australia - 1854 Australia)
* spouse 1 married 1869 Sarah Anne Ginn (1847 Australia to 1877 Australia)
children
1870 Elizabeth Dwyer
1871 Jane Hillier
* spouse 2 Emma Jane Ginn (1849 Australia - 1912 Australia)
no children

George Christopher Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849
* born 1843 Longford, Tasmania
* died 10/11/1912 Launceston, Tasmania
* father Robert Ginn, Convict "Equestrian" 1844 (1816 England - 1873 Australia)
* mother Elizabeth Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849 (1814 England - 1891 Port Cygnet, Tasmania)
* spouse 1 married 1867 Louisa Sophia Ginn (1850 Australia to 1933 New Zealand)
children
1868 Elizabeth Ann Ginn
1869 Lucy Amelia Macmillan
1870 Lewis Napoleon Ginn, infant
1872 George Alfred Ginn, infant
1873 George Frank Ginn
1875 Sarah Ellen Rowles
1877 Andrew Arthur Ginn
1879 Edith Belinda Coneybeer
1882 Bertha Elsie Redin
1884 Percy Edmund Ginn
1886 Alice Maud Ivy Trevithick
1889 Hazel Constance Louise Bowling
* spouse 2 married in 1883 Emma Jane Ginn (1849 Australia to 1912 Australia)
no children

It looks like one family went to New Zealand and the other remained in Australia.

Can anyone add any supporting information to assist determining what spouse and what information belongs to which George?

Robert Ginn, Convict "Equestrian" 1844 was a convict who did not arrive in Australia until 2 May 1844.

His wife Elizabeth Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849 and children arrived in Australia in 1849

According to his overview his children born in England were
* Sarah Ann 1838, Sarah Ann Richardson, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849
* David 1840 George Christopher Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849
* George 1842 George Christopher Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849
Once in Australia they had the following children
* James William 1850, James William Ginn
* Mary Jane 1852, Mary Jane Ginn
* John Henry 1854 John Henry Ginn
* David William 1857 David William Ginn, infant
* Levi 1858 Levi Ginn, infant
* unnamed daughter 1860 Richardson Ginn

These additional children are shown on Geni
* George 1850 George Ginn, query
* Henry 1854 John Henry Ginn
* James 1860 James Ginn, Query

From that information - his son George born in 1843 was born in England and arrived in Australia in 1849 George Christopher Ginn, Free Settler "William Jardine" 1849

I am unable to locate any birth records for James GINN born in 1860

Does anyone have any sources for this birth?

I have attached a lot of records to the profiles.

Sarah Anne Ginn married George GINN in 1869 and had children between 1870 and 1876 and she died in 1877 in Australia

Emma Jane Ginn married George GINN in 1883 and had a child in 1884 and she died in 1912 Australia

Louisa Sophia Ginn married George GINN in 1867 and had children between 1868 and 1889 and died in New Zealand in 1933

The timelines fit for one of the George's to marry Sarah and then Emma and for the other George to marry Sophia.
