Biography
- Birth: 5 November 1855; Upper Canada (Ontario)
- Death: 22 October 1940; Lemoyne, Pennsylvania
- Note: In 1880 George was age 24 and a school teacher. Florence Haggerty noted that George "entered the political world." I can't find him in 1900. The 1910 Census lists George W. (53), "Zatae" (38) and James G. (4) as residents of Lemoyne, Cumberland County (Enumeration District 0019, Visit 0036). In 1930 and 1940 they were also in Lemoyne, Cumberland County, PA. George's occupation was "agent" for a newspaper. Art Burrows, whose father was a cousin and friend of George's son, told me that George was well educated and he believes George was an elected member of the state legislature. Death registration says he was a retired book keeper.
- Note: Zaeta J. Smith; 1930 census indicates George was 42 and Zaeta 26 when they married.
