I suppose you are talking about Nora Zacharias who was born Jan 30, 1884, died Oct 31, 1945 (from the Idaho death index).

The 1900 census shows George Irwin born May 1850, widowed, with sons Samuel and Carl and daughters Maggie and Ethel living in Smicksburg, West Mahoning Twp., Indiana Co., PA.

The 1910 census shows George age 69, widowed with daughter Ethel, daughter Mary A. Clark, widowed, and granddaughter Ethel living in Stewardson Twp., Potter Co., PA.

I couldn't find him in the 1920 census and because there were more than one George Irwin born around the same time it is hard to determine which one he was in earlier census records.

You can look at some of these records online for free at labs.familysearch.org and at Ancestry.com. To look at all of Ancestry's records check with your local libraries to see if they have it. Some libraries also have Heritage Quest.

If you haven't already I suggest getting George's obituary and death certificate. If nothing else his obit might mention siblings. You might be able to find Jennie's death record from the Indiana County courthouse since she probably died in the late 1890's. You could also tried the Potter County Historical Society and the Historical and genealogical Society of Indiana County.
