Although I'm not positive, I don't think so. After some more digging around I
think George M. may have been the son of Michael ZIMMERMAN and Anna Maria [--?--] who were
in New Castle county in 1860. In 1870 the parents are not on the census, but the two
daughters listed with them in 1860 (Clara and Mary Anna) are living with Christian MAYER
(or MYER) and his family along with 9-year-old George ZIMMERMAN..
I'm assuming George's parents have died by 1870, so Lillian couldn't have been
his sister, being born in 1871. Now, if George was NOT the son of Michael and Anna Maria,
then it's possible he did have a sister, Lillian.
Still diggin'!
