Documentation:
* Edward SHIPMAN and His Descendants, chapter XXIX (book).
* Hodges Marriage Records (book) for Andrew County, Missouri.
* Reuben GEORGE Sr. family history records, plus letters and census records on his descendants.
Notes:
* Margaret LYNN was Reuben GEORGE Jr.'s first wife and Nancy McCOTTER GEORGE was Reuben GEORGE Jr.'s second wife.
* I have found no proof that Mandy GEORGE was Reuben and Margaret LYNN GEORGE's
daughter except for circumstancial facts: she married in Andrew County MO when Reuben
Jr.'s family was living there; the birthdate the SHIPMAN book has for her (1826) was after
Reuben Jr. had married Margaret LYNN GEORGE (1825) but before he married Nancy McCOTTER
GEORGE (1828). The SHIPMAN book dates Charles and Mandy's marriage a year off the HODGES
book dates, but Mandy GEORGE still would have been around 17 or 18 at a January 1844 or
1845 marriage. Charles and Mandy SHIPMAN moved to Prairie DuSac WI in 1846.
