a family history states that he went with his older brother Benjamin to California for the Gold Rush, but soon returned with enough gold to make a ring. However Benjamin went in Apr 1849 when George was only 10 or 11 and George is not named in the list of those who went in that group. He probably went in the mid- to late 1850s and joined his brother briefly before returning.
