                                                                   NOTES

George [2], Frank, Ernest & Lottie are children of George [1] & wife Eliza A. b. 1839 - d. Feb. 15 1883. Missing from this photo are George [1] & Eliza’s other children, Anna born about 1860 & William b. Jan. 9 1867 - d. Mach 27 1894. Other children of George [2] & Genevieve missing from photo: Willow Wave born Feb. 14 1896 - died July 26 1981 & George [3] born about 1899/1900 - died about 1965/66.

Based on the birth date of Harold [1891] with Joe younger & Willow’s birth date 1896, i believe the photo date to be 1895. Based on FamilySearch.org [Mormon] web site search i believe George [1] parents are Thomas & Elizabeth Morris of St, Martin, Birmingham, Warwick, England.
