The exact date of birth and date of death for George W. Stribling is unknown.
He married Elizabeth WILLIAMS 7 Aug 1833 in Marion Co, ILL
He was apparently a circuit riding Methodist Minister in the 1830s, as verified by the Methodist commission on History. In 1847 his youngest child Caroline (my great grandmother) was born, and in 1848 a bond was required for the care of his children. The 1850 census lists Elizabeth as "widow". The Antioch cemetery caretaker said there used to be a tombstone for GW Stribling, but when we were there in 2000 all we could find was this footstone which was near his brother-in-law's family, Benjamin White Williams.
G W Stribling and wife Elizabeth had at least six children:
Catherine b. ca 1834 m (probably) James M. Allen
Mary Ann b. Aug 1839 m. 1. James E Wright; 2. William S. Alexander
Bradford S. b. 3 Aug 1840 m. Dorcas E. Alexander
Margaret E. b. 1843 no further record
Sarah Malvina b. 31 Jan 1845 m. Harvey A. Meridith
M. Caroline b. 28 Apr 1847 m. Samuel C. Branch
