George Flood was born in Newport, Co. Tipperary Nth, circa 1825. His birth date is suspect in the official records - when joining the RIC in 1849 he claimed to be 22 (implying birth year of 1827); at his RIC discharge in 1880 after 30 years 7 mths service, he claimed to be 62 (implying birth in 1818) and the subsequent census records (1901, 1911) imply birth in 1829-30.² He was baptised in Knockacullin, Newport, Co. Tipperary Nth, on 30 August 1825.³

George's Royal Irish Constabulary service records (#13554) show that he was a labourer, claimed age 22, height 5' 8-7/8", a native of Tipperary Nth and Catholic, when first appointed on 17 November 1849. He served in the Reserve until March 1850, but was subsequently posted to Donegal (May 1854), then Fermanagh (Sep 1855). His career was a mixture of approbation (Aug 1858) and admonishment (Oct 1853 and May 1859) followed by a caution, but the records do not show the causes.⁴
