HOME SEARCH1861 George B. Dutcher
Born: About 1861 at Brisben, Greene Township, Chenango Co., NY Died: After 1910, probably at McDonough, Chenango Co., NY His father was Arnold Dutcher. His mother was Lydia A. (Last Name Unknown). It seems that George never married. It seems probable that George was the twin of his sister "Jainey". The 1880 census for Brisben, New York lists: Lydia age 49 white female (Mother, Head of Household) Alice age 22 white female (Dau) George age 19 white male (Son) Jaines age 19 white female (Dau) Cyrus age 17 white male (Son) The 1910 census for McDonough, Chenango County, New York lists: Dutcher, George B. (Head of Household) age 50 white male, single, farm laborer Lydia A. (Mother) age 81 white female Crosby, Alice (sister of George) age 52 white female, married 26 years They are apparently living next door to, or on the same property, as: Dutcher, James A. (Head of Household) age 50 white male, married 25 years, farmer Jennie (Wife) age 39 white female, married 25 years Floyd W. (Son) age 24 white male Mable A. (Dau) age 11 white female Clarence L. (Son) age 8 white male Viola F. (Dau) age 5 white female Bertha B. (Dau) age 16 months w. female There is some confusion about whether George's twin was "James" or "Jaines" (sic/sp.), and based on the census records found by Valarie Sherman Bigler, I cannot determine the accuracy of all these listings. George was apparently never married. Here are links to the census records that Valarie located: Oxford NY Census 1860 Oxford NY Census 1880 McDonough NY Census 1910 N.B.: Brisben is part of Greene township, Chenango County, NY. Brisben is just north of the village of Greene on NY Highway 12. McDonough just west of Norwich, Chenango County, NY. Here is a photo of George with his two brothers, Cyrus and James. I believe that George is the person in the center.
