'''George E Washington''' (May 1863 - 1949) Copyright 2006, Will Johnson, [mailto:wjhonson@aol.com wjhonson@aol.com], Professional Genealogist, All Rights Reserved This page has been paid for by George's relative Althea Bolden. George E Washington was born May 1863 in Arkansas per the 1900 census. (He is 47 on the 1910 census, 58 on the 1920 census and 67 on the 1930 census.) He married Maranda, possibly around 1891/2 whose last name is unknown at this time. Maranda evidently had several children from a prior marriage. On the 1900 census, they say married 1 year, but on the 1910 census, he says this is his first marriage, while she says it's her second and both say they married 18 years ago. Per his tombstone (see below), he died in 1949, probately in [http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Stuttgart,_Arkansas Stuttgart], Arkansas County, Arkansas. I placed a lookup request [http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.arkansas.counties.arkansas/1858/mb.ashx here on Ancestry's Arkansas County Board] and got this response:<blockquote> According to the book, "Cemetery Records of Arkansas County, Arkansas",Page 290, there is a Washington, G. E., born 1863, died 1949. He is listed as buried in the Green Groves and Love's Rest Cemeteries which are located just north of Stuttgart. Both of these cemeteries are transcribed together as one so they must be connected. On the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS)government web site they are listed as two different cemeteries but very close to each other by latitude and longitude.</blockquote> ==Children== *Ethel E b 11 Nov 1893 Arkansas.
