    1. [PA-SW-OBITS] Alphonse GEORGE
    2. Bruce & Regine
    3. Hi, First of all MANY THANKS to Victoria for her hard work extracting obituaries!!! Charlotte Rogers brought my attention to this list and thanks to Victoria have been able to provide valuable information to members of our genealogical society (Belgium). My attention was brought to Alphonse GEORGE this past few days and I wanted to include the information I found on him as the obituary contained an error. Here it is. I took this information right off the Belgian civil records. I hope someone can use this. Thanks again!!! Regine Brindle Peru IN "Alphonse GEORGE, 69, died at 12 noon, Thursday, December 26, 1935, in his home in Sturgeon. He had been ill of pneumonia one week. He was born May 28, 1866, in Jumet, Belgium, and was united in marriage to Julia LAURENT, April 26, 1901, in Belgium..." Alphonse GEORGE was born 28 May 1865 (this is the correct year, not 1866), the son of Jean Baptiste GEORGE and Ursule SERVAIS. I have his marriage record as well.
