    Note 1899  Marion County, Illinois, USA Find all individuals with events at this location 
    There were 2 George W. Gilmores in Marion Co at this time. Remarkably, while \"my\" George W. was married to Etta M., alternately seen as Attie, Ettie, etc.--the other one was married to \"Adda B.,\" also seen as Addie. To add to the confusion Adda was born in Nov 1858, while Etta (Matteson) Gilmore was born in Dec 1854 [1900 census], 1859 [1860 & 1870 & 1880 census], 1863 (1895 Kansas census), or 3 May 1858 (KY death cert). So the two women were close in age.

    Though a major coincidence, the two couples can be separated. The other George was Rev. George Washington Gilmore, b. 1843 KY, d 1924 in St. Louis, buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Marion Co IL [FindAGrave]. His wife was Adda B. Booth and they married 1878 Marion Co IL. Their land transactions were in the Kinmundy area of Marion Co, while the subject George and Etta were in Centralia.

    While a major coincidence (husbands\' names, wives\' names, an ages of wives) they can be separated from one another.
