History
George Searby Buxton (1867-1955) was born in England and was a carpenter by trade. He married Mary Isabel Nattriss (1866-1941), a teacher, and moved to Canada in 1911. In 1912, George built an arts and crafts style home in Burnaby which remains as one of the City's heritage buildings to this day. George and Mary had five children: Clara Violet (1910-1913), Mary (1900-?), Alice Clarissa (Clissie) (1902-?), Bernard (1897-1972) and Leopold (1893-1951).
