At his death, George owned a number of tracts of real estate. Some of the tracts were sold to Jonas Altemose, Jacob Stauffer, Reuben Bonser, and George Bonser to satisfy debts. Several other tracts were sold to sons, George L. and Perry, and son-in-law, Mathias George. These land sales occurred from 1875 to 1878. (Monroe County estate file #686 and orphans court file #849)
