Note: The Year of birth and age of Georgiana above is 10years off from her age in 1910 as she is listed as 37 inboth census reports. I would like to guess that she was 27in 1900 since Dorsa was 24, but she may have been olderthan him. These are the only two census reports I can findher in as there are 7 other Georgianas within 1 year of1863 in adjoining townships so I can not pin her down in1880. I just wanted to let you know I realize something iswrong here, but that is the way it was recorded.
