George L Brinkerhoff

George L Brinkerhoff was the son of Cornelius Brinkeroff & Alice M Van Vranken (the Van Vranken line traces back to Hezekiah Rogers Jr & Hannah Vincent).

He married Minnie Rehberger in 1899 and had 2 children;  then he married Mabel Sarver in 1916 and they had one son; and lastly, he married Sallie Durham and had another son.

Although married 3 times, it appears George was single when he died having made his home in a local hotel that caught fire.
