George was one of the 4 youngest of 9 children of John Humphrey, a Revolutionary War soldier who, on November 4, 1795, was issued a tract of 1,078 acres of land by Treasury Warrant #11602 which was located in Hardin County, Kentucky on Rock Creek, a branch of the Nolin River. John Humphrey's death occurred in late 1814 or in the first 2 months of 1815. On October 18, 1813 he wrote his will, recorded in Hardin County, Kentucky, Will Book B on February 13, 1815. John Humphrey's widow, Elizabeth, is thought to be his 2nd wife and not the mother of George Humphrey.

George Humphrey married Barbara Jenkins, a daughter of John Jenkins and Sarah Quick Shacklett. (Source: The Kentucky Pioneer Genealogy and Records, Volume 9, 1988.)

George and Barbara's daughter, Minerva, married Col. Absalom R. Shacklett. They are buried at Island Baptist Cemetery in Island, McLean County, Kentucky with Barbara Humphrey.
