ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

   George W. Hanselman, 12 Apr 1824 - 18 Nov 1894, on 05 Dec 1847, 
married Sarah Jane (Kelly) Hanselman, 26 Apr 1831 - 06 Apr 1889.  
Sarah is buried at Crockett Cemetery.  George's obituary says he is 
buried at Crockett Cemetery; however, do not find him in the 
Cemetery book.

   On 27 Sep 1890, George married Diana Wilbur (marriage license has 
Wilber).  No record of her burial place.

   The "History of Steuben County, IN - 1885, has little on the 
Hanselman family.  Perhaps George is a relative (brother?) of David 
C. Hanselman, born 24 Dec 1827 in Columbiana County, Ohio.
