Notes about George Alvey

Source: Russell, Lee, Annotated Alvey/Behm FGS, (Muncie IN, L.R., xv Nov MCMXCIII & xi Jan MCMXCIV)

Cullen, Charles, Cullen family ledger entries, (Belleview OH, CC, before 1890)

1860 Census shows George living with bro. Joseph.

The marriage of our George to Mary Miller is speculative based on the WPA index to Delaware Co., IN marriages, ref C-4-99.

Of all the George Alveys living in Delaware Co., IN, only this George Alvey, born 31 Aug 1833, would have been old enough to marry a woman named Mary Miller on 18 Mar 1861, the date of the WPA index C-4-99 entry.

An English-born George Alvey is living with an English-born Joseph Alvey in 1860. At this date, only the 1860 census & the WPA index has been checked. Apr 1993

Lee Russell writes, ' Delaware Co. Death Records - George Alvey - age 67 died Nov 27 1899 (wife Elizabeth Behm) (found dead in park where he kept cow on pasture. He died of heart attack, still holding chain to cow's collar, when his sonsfound him. He had 3 sons -) - xv Nov MCMXCIII - Muncie, IN

'5, 2, 2, Vincent Alvey, ae 52, ... 6, Charlotte Alvey, ae 52, fem, ... ...

Lee Russell provides an annotated extract of the 1870 census,

Lee Russell writes, 'George Alvey found where Heekin Park is near 12th street & Hackley - with cow which was pastured. He had been missing two days when his 2 sons William - John found their father. His wife was Elizabeth Behm (he alsohad a daughter Mary (m. William Barr?) and another son George who m. Mary Miller? --- son william married Violet Sellers. He had 2 sons & practiced law in Muncie. His picture circa 1905 shows him w/ other Del. Co. lawyers admitted tothe bar association of attorneys. (He was cute!) Lee Russell' - xv Nov MCMXCIII - Muncie IN

Lee Russell provides an extract of the 1880 Hamilton Twp., Delaware Co., IN census which she annotates:
