GEORGE. Looking to make contact with the children and/or grandchildren
of my great-uncle, Leopold (Slim) George; b:Jan 7/1876 in St. Paul, Kansas,
d:June, 1951 in Oregon. 1914 Leopold George moved with his mother &
adult siblings to Killam, Alberta Canada when the Canadian West was being
settled. Circa, 1930's Leopold George & his wife, Theresa (Venneman)
George, moved to, I believe, the Portland area, but due to a lack of info.
within the family in Canada, could very well be anywhere in OR state. They
had 5 children: Maxine, Mary, Kay, Edmond, and Nick. All the children would
have been born between 1902 - 1920.

WILSON. Looking to make contact with the children and/or grandchildren
of Petronella "Nell" (George) Wilson & Raymond Wilson. Nell (George)
Wilson was born Dec 2, 1883, died Sept. 1966 in Oregon. 1914 Petronella
(George) Wilson moved with her mother & adult siblings to WA state
temporarily. Most of the George family eventually moved on to settle in
Killam, Alberta Canada. My guess is Nell met Ray Wilson in WA state, married,
and settled in the Portland area, and never did move to Killam, Alberta
Canada with the rest of the family. Due to a lack of info within the family
in Canada, this family could very well have settled elsewhere in OR state,
but probably the Portland area. They had 6 children: Jeanette, Bernadette
married Carl Helgerson, Marie married Ben Johnson, Dan married Rose Petersen,
Bill married Eva Hetzler, and Ted married Harriet Murphy.
