In the 1900 U.S. census for Hartford CT, the surname is entered and indexed with a double “t.” George gives his date of birth as Dec. 1864, matching your account. He gives 1891 as his year of entry into the USA. He is described as a cabinet-maker. He has been married for eight years to Mary E., born in Connecticut of English parents. The children are George H., 7; Carrie B., 3; and Robert F., newborn. (The index gives date of birth for George as 1862, making the search more difficult.)
In the U.S. census entry for 1910 in West Hartford CT, legibility is very, very poor. The surname is transcribed for the index as “Whittaker.” The age given for George is 43, a discrepancy with your account, possibly indicating a census informant other than George himself. His English birth is barely discernible. His date of immigration is given as 1892, matching your account. The list of children now includes Herbert at age 3. George senior is now employed as a pattern-maker.
