Nolan (died about 1872) OR George's father Stephen Nolan who died in about 1876. According to his obituary, George left for California soon after his father died, returned to Missouri and left again for Idaho in 1882 where he settled and raised a family. He called himself an orphan so finding family history is challenging.
