    Documents
    George Morris James' WWI draft registration card
    George Morris James' WWI draft registration card
    Shows he is married to Cora by 1918, but we show he married Cora in 1921. 1920 census shows Geroge M James and Cora living in Ogden with their children. Cora's parents were born in Holland. Jerry James is suspecting that George Morris' first wife Antje Cornelia and his second wife, Cora Anna, are the same person (4/28/2008).
