I don't see any that actually died in Siskiyou County; just Dorrell's who died in Butte, Shasta counties. Also, don't see an Emma. Emma might have died elsewhere (at a city hospital, for ex.) and been buried in Dunsmuir. Are there no death dates given at the cemetery??

I was just on eBay and noticed several "Surname" Family History. Please be very careful of these - most of them do not have ant this to do with genealogy. Most of them are just a listing from the Social Security dead index, telephone listing and then telling you - here is your family, go to work. Please think twice - and warn others also. ~~~~~~ Billie C.

I do know that he had a brother, charles who was born in March of 1829 in Gotha, a town in Saxony. he also ended up in Siskiyou County. How Charles got from Saxony to Bavaria where George was supposed to have been born is a mystery. I have been in contact with a Roberta Culberson whom I guess you are related. I just finished typing up my notes on the Herzogs which I'll be happy to e-mail you if you provide me with your e-mail address. Mine is Carydavis@aol.com.

In 1941, in an election for governor one of the candidates was the mayor of Yreka, Albert Herzog, who was listed as 78 years old. But on the family tree of Charles Herzog, my great grandfather's older brother, his son Albert L. Herzog, is listed as born in 1873, which would have made him 68 in 1941. Are these Albert Herzogs the same with one account giving the wrong age?
