1844 in Germany (married to Louisa b. abt. 1851 in Canada and had two children
Willie b. abt. 1873 in KS and George b. abt. 1875 in KS) and John b. abt. 1840

Francis b. abt. 1873 in KS and John Jr. b. abt. 1874 in KS). I have much more

I am searching for a George Watson who moved to Kansas after 1880, most likely.
He is listed in the 1880 Iowa Census married to a Margery, 32, and had two
daughters, Mary and Sarah L. My grandfather said that he moved to Western Kansas
to start a cattle ranch there. I do not know the county. He was in the Civil War
and fought in Georgia. His brother and he were taken prisoners to Andersonville
Prison where his brother died and he returned to Iowa, married and then moved to
Kansas never to keep in contact. Can anyone help me with this family? The 1880
