Notes:

Complete names of George Washington's children were made available by Mary Ned Fotis.

The son George W was discovered in the 1880 and 1900 censuses. 
He is probably George William, and is therefore our Will Knifong.


* Information about Lola Frances and Georgia Ann was supplied by Georgia Ann's grand daughters
Cynthia Lee Whaley Williams
and Sandy Boring. (swboring @ mindspring.com)
Some data is available from: Myers Geneology

The children Ada and Raymond were listed in the Myers geneology and died in their youth.  Raymond's photo is shown below.

** (Raymond's dates determined from Rembrance Card which says he was 7yr 6 mo 15 da old when he died on 2 Dec 1899)

A number of Knifongs and Pipes in the generation that would be the children of the children show above are found in a cemetery listing for the White Oak Cemetery in Duncan Township, Sullivan Co, MO at TOMBSTONE.
