I assume that you could obtain more information about George's crime by contacting the Colorado State Archives
http://www.colorado.gov/dpa/doit/archives/pen/prison.html
and requesting his inmate file. Provide them George's inmate number 10203.

You could also probably find out more about the child custody hearing by writing the Eagle County Court.

You might also obtain a copy of the divorce proceedings, as explained here:
http://www.colorado.gov/dpa/doit/archives/divorce/1garfield....

In those days, before "no Fault" divorces, the divorce record is generally quite telling.

George was the brother of the great-grandmother of a friend of mine for whom I have been researching. He has no personal nor family information about George or Hattie - the information we have comes from research in publicly available records.

If you have more information about George and his family or find out more, would you share. My email address is DawnaJL@aol.com.

I can also add one additional detail to what I previously posted. George and Hattie were married 20 Jan 1898 in Pitkin County, Colorado.
