I have not added Birth date as I feel who gave information was wrong, 1910 census has him with his parents James and Jessie and shows he was a year old. His mother states she had 2 children but only one is living. Sarah is also their child and named after her grandmother. His death certificate also states he is a school child, if he was born the date on death certificate he would not be a school child. Marriage records for his parents state they were married in 1905. Also believe that the John Riding buried at Salmon was his father but was listed as John. 1910 census says father's name is James. Two more children were born from that marriage, Nettie Grace and Hettie Viola. I have seen many times death certificates for Idaho has been wrong and believe it was due to the people that filled them out as Idaho had not been doing these death certificates very long. After re-checking the birth-date for George on his death certificate it is actually his mothers birth-date.

According to Idaho recorder May 24, 1918 Nine year old, George (Riding) died at Patterson on May 20, 1918
