George Albert Williamson, son of George and Elmira Williamson, was born 
August 21, 1878 near Clarksdale, MO, in DeKalb County. He departed this 
life January 22, 1956 at the age of 77 years, five months and one day. He

with his son Glen to Norfolk, NE. Since leaving the farm he has lived with his 
sons. At the time of his passing he was with Dale at Lexington, NE.
