George Galbraith was born in 1812 to George and Margaret Galbraith in Glasgow, Scotland, the first of three children.
Ann Wilkie was born in 1813 to William and Margaret Wilkie in Glasgow, eighth in a large family of 12 children.
George's brother, William, married Ann's sister, Jane, around 1831.

George was an engineer whose government job required frequent moves. Between about 1837 and 1840, he spent time in Belfast, Grimsby, Antwerp, Brussels, London, and Saint Kitts. The family sometimes moved with him or visited.
In late 1840, Ann and the children traveled by ship to Saint Kitts, where George was working. George and Ann contracted yellow fever, and George died in December. On its return journey, the ship took Ann, who was still too ill to walk, and the children back to England.
The family moved to Jersey to live with William and Jane Galbraith during the following year.
