George William Herzog c.1842
I am looking for any information I can find on my gg-grandffather, George William Herzog. The 1880 census for Cherokee County, Baxter Springs, Kansas gives his age as 38, occupation as shoemaker and place of birth as Germany. He married Martha Sipes about 1866/67 in Missouri and died in 1881 in Baxer Springs, Kansas from an accidental gun shot wound. They had four sons, Frank, Tom, Fred and George. I am descended from Tom.
