Geiger, based on the information that you posted. In the absence of further discoveries, I do not see a relationship between him and the George A Geiger that you mentioned. Here is what I found on George F. Geiger (based on age, wife’s name, etc., it appears that there is only this one). 1920 Census – No match found 1910 Census – 3rd Ward Galion, Crawford Co. OH: G. F. Geiger, age 36, OH, Father born At Sea, Mother born NJ Wife: Harriette Geiger, age 36, OH, both parents born OH. Married two years. No children. This seems to eliminate George A. as a son of George F., unless he is less than 20 years old in 1930, but with a child over 4 years old, that seems unlikely. 1900 Census – 4th Ward Lima, Allen Co., OH: Geo. F. Geiger, age 26, OH, JAN 1874, Father born At Sea, Mother born OH*, Brother-in-law. Head of household: Frank H. Simons, age 31. Wife: Mary G. Simons, age 31, OH, Father born At Sea, Mother born NJ Also found at this census location: Geo. E. Geiger, age 60, born AT SEA, parents born Germany. Married 10 years Wife: Teresa E. Geiger, age 36, OH, one child [1/1], and son, Donald M., age 7, OH. 1880 Census – Kossuth, Auglaize Co. OH: George Geiger, age 40, Atlantic Ocean, parents Germany. Wife: Almira Geiger, age 40, NJ Children: Delmer Geiger, age 13, OH; two daughters, George F. Geiger, age 6, OH. As for Delmer Geiger: 1900 Census – 4th Ward Lima, Allen Co., OH: Demer* E. Geiger, age 33 OH, Wife: Sarah R. Geiger, Age 36 … Married 10 years. Two children [2/2] both daughters. 1910 Census – 3rd Ward Bucyrus, Crawford Co., OH: Delmer E. Geiger, age 43, Lodger. No family members listed, however it says second marriage, married 7 years, no children [0/0]. 1920 Census – Wyandot, Crawford Co. OH: Delmer E. Geiger, are 51, OH Wife: Laura E. Geiger. Mother-in-law: Sarah J. Shupp. No others in household. That pretty well eliminates the possibility that George A. is a son of Delmer and a nephew to George F. It does leave the possibility that George A. could be the descendant of an unknown brother of George E. or it may just be a coincidence.
