You don't give us much help in eliminating others......however a quick search of the 1901 census came up with a George HANDY age 50 born and living in Ilmington a Tree Feller & Agri Labourer. If this is likely to be the same person, the 1901 decoder will also show you that his wife was Elizabeth, and that there are also 5 female children in the same household. Graham
