Elizabeth GEORGE married James ARMSTRONG in Columbiana County, Ohio on March 28, 1820. (see my James Armstrong Family site: http://www.nd.edu/~dpaul/armstron.htm Here is a printed quote regarding Elizabeth GEORGE ARMSTRONG: QUOTE: ************************************************ In his later years, long time Schoolcraft resident E. Lakin Brown would write his "autobiographical notes" (1) and mention the Armstrong's in 1832: 'In the fall of 1832 I surveyed a road from Dry Prairie to Climax... When the surveys were finished, [John] Perrine and I walked home by the Indian trail from Climax to Gourd-Neck. There was no settlement on the route. We got a late dinner at the cabin of James Armstrong. Mrs. Armstrong was a tall, muscular woman to whom the toils of pioneer life were as nothing. It was said that she could stand on a large log and chop it off as quickly as any man. ' 1.

UNQUOTE ************************************************** Anyone having any information regarding possible PARENTS -or SIBLINGS for Elizabeth, please let me know!!!
