George B. Lindauer obituary in the The Courier-News of Bridgewater, New Jersey on March 25, 1926: "George Lindauer Dead. George Lindauer, one of the leading residents of this section of the county and widely known as a painter and decorator, died at his home in South Bound Brook last night. where he had been seriously ill for the past two days from a stroke of paralysis. Mr. Lindauer was working in the Whitenack residence on East street, Tuesday afternoon. Someone heard a noise resembling a falling body. Going to the room where Mr. Lindauer was at work, he was found in an unconscious condition. The stricken man was removed to his home, but failed to rally. Mr. Lindauer had been in failing health for sometime, according to his intimate friends. and had complained considerably. It was not realized that his condition was so serious, however."

Estate:
The First National Bank of Bound Brook is named executor of the will of the late George B. Lindauer, of South Bound Brook. Money bequests are left to each of three daughters and the balance of the estate to his wife, Mrs. Maty [sic] T. Lindauer. (Source: The Courier-News of Bridgewater, New Jersey on May 18, 1926)

Notes on Charles Lindauer:
The "Charles Lindauer" in the 1870 census that lived with Caroline Ritter was born in 1840 in Pennsylvania and worked as a "policy dealer", this was the policy racket, or numbers game. His name appears as "Charles Frederick Lindauer" for the birth record of some of Caroline Ritter's children. That matches Charles Frederick Lindauer (1836-1921) who was married to Anna Augusta Kershaw (1841-1931). The exact year of Charles Frederick Lindauer's birth is not known, since civil registration of birth's in Pennsylvania did not begin until 1905.

Research:
