  • Notes 
    • (Research):George's Find-a-Grave memorial has him buried at Dresslers Ridge United Methodist Cemetery, Susquehanna Township, Juniata County, Pennsylvania. I have doubts about the accuracy of that memorial. George lived in and died in Clearfield County, and all his family members are buried in Clearfield County. Prior to the creation of this memorial, there was a Find-a-Grave memorial for him being buried at Centre Cemetery in Hyde, which is where his parents are buried, but that memorial has been removed. Also, his obituary states that he was buried at Centre Cemetery, next to his mother. Thus, I am keeping his burial location as Centre Cemetery, but am also keeping the link to his FAG memorial.
