As a Granddaughter of George, I would like to know who his Parents were.

****While George's birth yr. on his death certificate, is 1874, he gave his birth yr. as 1885, on his marriage license application when he married Etha Linda Stoner. He gave his birth yr. on his World War I Draft Registration as Jul 4, 1882, and this date was also given on the U.S., Social Security Applications and Claims Index, 1936-2007/Ancestry. His year of birth on his tombstone is 1875.

**** George's Place of Birth was given as Ohio, on his Marriage Application to Etha Linda Stoner, and in the 1930 Maryland Federal Census. Other documents say he was born in Pennsylvania.

**** In June 1937, George Lape Rupert, applied for Social Security, giving his DOB as July 4, 1892, his Birthplace as Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and his Parents as Samuel Rupert and Lissy. Lissy might be a Transcription error, with her name being Lizzy. I believe George's Middle Name might be his Mother's Maiden name, that of Lape. Trying to find George's Parents, Samuel and Lissy/Lizzie, has been problematic, with no results as yet. I'm questioning if the 1892 might have been a transcription error; The original document is not available on ancestry.com.

****In his military reg. he spelled his name both "Rupert" and "Rupbert" On his marriage application, and 1920 Pa. Federal Census, his name was spelled, "Ruphert"

George was said to have been "first" married at age 18.
