George F FRANKLIN ^{1 2}

  General Notes:

Another example of the middle initial "F", endemic to the Morris (son of Moshe Nisan) Franklin branch of the family.

Like his cousin Morris Franklin—and at virtually the same time—George was born in Virginia.

The census of 1930 has George's parents born in Germany, as well as those of his wife. Leon is still born in Maryland, but his mother and sister are now born in Pennsylvania. The census of 1920 shows a transitionary state: parents and "Jenny," Russia; Naoma, Pennsylvania; Leon and Elsie, Maryland. ^{2 4 5}
