Dear Listers;
I'm seeking information on my GGF William D. George
b March 1849 MO (according to census records) and GM
Mary Adaline (Garrett) George b Aug 9, 1878 Albert,
(Gillespie Co.),TX.
William was a cattle hand and worked on the Moss
Ranch in Llano Co., TX prior to Sept 18, 1879 when he
married Henrietta Solomon b 1861 GA (daughter of
Godwin and Mary Jane Roberts)in Gillespie Co., TX.
They had four children between 1880 and 1887, Wm. is
recorded widowed, 1900 census. Their first child Wm.
Lawrence George (my GF) born July 21, 1880 served in
the U.S.A. and then the U.S.M.C. before marrying Mary
Garrett, having their first child Waldorff George and
moving to Maricopa Co., AZ. Wm. D. and Henrietta (went
by Ettie) also had Euphamia, Enock and Francis.
Wm. D. George sold his farm and moved across the
co. to Willow City after his children had grown. There
he built and operated a general store until it was
destroyed by fire. No more in known of William D.
George. His birth place in MO and my GM's parents and
siblings are and have remained by blocks for years.
Any suggestions, ideas or references will be very
welcome, if you are researching this line or believe
you could be related, you are strongly encouraged to
reply. DWG
