​George Naylor was born in North Wheatley, Nottinghamshire, England. He was the son of George and Martha (née Cotton) Nailor. He married Mary Baynes (née Glew) in Messingham, Lincolnshire, England on 1 June 1842. She was the daughter of Robert and Ann (née Watson) Glew. They had 4 children:

   Hannah — born about 1829
​   William — born 1831
​   Ethalinda — born about 1838

​George Naylor died on 5 February 1854. An inquest was held by Dr Foster Shaw at the home of Charles Foster, brother-in-law of the deceased on 7 February. Depositions were given by several witnesses:
   Mary Naylor — wife of the deceased
   Thomas Rea — a neighbour
​   Robert Glew — Mary Naylor's father
​   Isabella Scott — servant of the deceased
​   William Naylor Foster — George Naylor's nephew 
​  
In evidence it appeared George had lived unhappily with Mary for some time and they had separated because of his ill treatment of her. He wrote a letter to Mary which was delivered to her by their servant Isabella Scott, requesting that she return home. Mary was afraid to go back to him and asked him to call upon her at the home of her sister, Rebecca Foster, where she was staying. He did this on Sunday 5 February and an argument ensued. He then took a knife out of his pocket and slashed his throat while still on horseback. He galloped off and after about 60 yards fell from the horse dead. The verdict was suicide while being of unsound mind. He was buried at the Mount Moriac Cemetery.

​His son George met with an unfortunate accident on 15 April, 1904 when an axe he was using gashed an artery near his ankle. He was buried at the Mount Moriac Cemetery with his mother who died on 28 June 1894 at the age of 81.
