I have never been able to find what happened to George. He married Ora Richardson in Grant Co., IN, in 1890. Ora was listed on her death record in 1909 as divorced. So her and George got divorced sometime between 1900 and 1909. I found George and Ora and their children in the 1900 census living in Muskegon, Michigan. They are in that census as last name Jims! That was a hard one to find in the census. Muskegon is a city right on Lake MI. directly across the lake from Milwaukee, WI. Muskegon is right near Grand Rapids, MI.
George and Ora's son William was born in Grand Rapids, MI in 1895, as per the death certificate I put on William's FAG page.
George may have died in MI, or he may have left MI and died elsewhere? I am hoping somebody will find him someday.
