George Hoover, youngest son of Christian and Caroline (Kinnard) Hoover, was born 14 Apr 1865 in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, and died 19 Jan 1930 in Sterling Run, Lumber Township, Cameron County, Pennsylvania of a stroke. He married about 1898 Anna Meade. The couple had one child, a son, Omet who was born in Jan 1899 and died in 1901, presumably of drowning.

I took this photo at the Oak Hill Cemetery in Oak Hill, Karthaus Township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania. According to his death certificate, George was buried at the Pine Street cemetery in Gibson Township, Cameron County, Pennsylvania.
