George was born in Hartsville, Darlington Co., SC. On the 1880 Federal Census, he was listed as 4 years old. He and his mother, Mary Ann Gainey, were living with Mary's parents, Duncan and Ann Ganey, in Chesterfield Co. George married Viola Henderson about 1911.

George and Viola had eight children, including my father, Jessie. My favorite memory of my grandparents was sitting on the front porch at their home on Lincoln St. and enjoying the love and laughter of our family time together.
