John, I am a cousin from Oregon. George was my g.grandfather. Esther was my grandma. Her father George claimed to have been born at sea on the way over from England? He landed in Canada and was there until he was a teenager at which time he ran away to the U.S. and went to work for the railroad. He refused to talk about any family and Esther never met any. I have not been able to find anything on him. There were alot of Home children brought here about that time and I'm wondering if he was one of them.
