George Robert Broad was born in Kensington, London in 1841, the son of John Broad (born c.1795 in Bedminster, Somerset), a journeyman bricklayer. He started in business as a brass founder in the 1870s, and after his death in 1895, his son George Frederick John Broad (born c.1864, London) took over George Broad and Son.[2] References1. ^{{cite web|title=George Robert Broad|url=http://www.victorianweb.org/sculpture/funerary/1.html|website=Victorian Web|accessdate=5 October 2015}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Broad, George}}2. ^{{cite web|title=George Robert Broad|url=http://sculpture.gla.ac.uk/view/person.php?id=ann_1291591343|website=Mapping the Practice and Profession of Sculpture in Britain and Ireland 1851-1951, University of Glasgow History of Art and HATII, online database 2011|accessdate=5 October 2015}} 2 : 1840 births|1895 deaths |
