Daughter of Rachel Conwill and James C George.

Note From Relative:

I just remembered that Amanda's middle name is a case of dispute among us genealogists. Some say her name is "Jane" and some say it was "June".

I tend to lean toward "Jane" since it was a more prevalent name in that era. Then again, my opinion may be biased because my mom's name is "Amanda Jane". (There were a number of "Amanda's", "Jane's", and "Amanda Jane's" in my mom's family tree.)

Anyway, I don't know the FAG guidelines on such a situation, but I prefer to list the possibilities with slashes between each of them. (Example: "Jane/June")
