George East
 George East

 Parents: William East and Ann Easy
 Christened: 26 Feb 1837 in Whaddon,   Cambridge, England 
 Occupations: (1851-61) Farm Laborer 
(1871)  Laborer on Fossil Works 
 
Note: he was basically involved in mining coprolites. Coprolites are phosphatic nodules of various origins (with a phosphate content   up to 70%). The term originated in the nineteenth century to describe material found in Lyme Regis and was commonly, somewhat incorrectly, described as fossilized dinosaur dung. Although some of the deposits were of dinosaur origin, the Cambridgeshire coprolite is believed to be made from the fossilized remains of a host of land and marine organisms, including teeth, bones, claws, shells and internal casts of mollusks (snail-related animals)
