Census
The 1900 Census stated that George/Ellen had a total of 11 children with 7 of them still living. The living children are accounted for in the current family tree. I have been unable to find the other 4 children which were deceased by 1900. It is possible that the 4 children were buried at the Riverside Cemetery; but, there is no record of their burial.
