Dear Listers; I'm seeking information on my GGF William D. George b March 1849 MO (according to census records) and GM Mary Adaline (Garrett) George b Aug 9, 1878 Albert, (Gillespie Co.),TX. William was a cattle hand and worked on the Moss Ranch in Llano Co., TX prior to Sept 18, 1879 when he married Henrietta Solomon b 1861 GA (daughter of Godwin and Mary Jane Roberts)in Gillespie Co., TX. They had four children between 1880 and 1887, Wm. is recorded widowed, 1900 census. Their first child Wm. Lawrence George (my GF) born July 21, 1880 served in the U.S.A. and then the U.S.M.C. before marrying Mary Garrett, having their first child Waldorff George and moving to Maricopa Co., AZ. Wm. D. and Henrietta (went by Ettie) also had Euphamia, Enock and Francis. Wm. D. George sold his farm and moved across the co. to Willow City after his children had grown. There he built and operated a general store until it was destroyed by fire. No more in known of William D. George. His birth place in MO and my GM's parents and siblings are and have remained by blocks for years. Any suggestions, ideas or references will be very welcome, if you are researching this line or believe you could be related, you are strongly encouraged to reply.
