It has been a 30yr brickwall! The only thing, of which long gone family, remembers is his name and that he had a brother named 'Fred' that was a Baptist preacher. My George married Rosalene 'Nanny' Smith and they had 8 children - 1 of which was my grandfather George (Lee?) Dorris, AKA 'Babe' Was George Washington's occupation that of an undertaker? As for origin, family thought they were Irish. However, one now deceased 'cousin' says Indian. Go figure! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
