George's mother-in-law is living with them in 1880 and 1900. Her name in 1900 is able to tell us that his wife is the daugther of Elijah Hamrick and Emeline Webb. But the wife is called Louisa J in the 1900 census, whereas she was E J in 1880 and is called Narcissus wuith the nickname "ELia Jane" (matching the 1880 census) by the Hamrick Genealogy.
