George married Sarah Cornelia Boothby on 20 Sep 1864 in Howell, Livingston Co., Michigan, USA. Sarah (daughter of Nathaniel S. Boothby and Martha Temple) was born on 10 Jan 1843 in Hartford, , Ohio, USA; died on 21 Oct 1877 in Howell, Livingston Co., Michigan, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Sarah died of "neuralgia of the stomach" at the age of 34. This could have been some kind of malnutrition or persistent vomiting, cancer, or something like amoebic dysentery - even diabetes. She was found dead in bed when George and Rosa came home from church one Sunday evening. When she died, the children ranged in age from 12 to 2 so they went to live with relatives until George remarried.
