  • Notes 
    • The spelling of George's middle name is an example of different people spelling the name in different ways. Brian D. Vaughn talked to different members of George's family and found that:
      His middle name was spelled "Layfayette" in the paper, "Layfayett" on his death certificate and his kids think it was "Lafayette", in addition his son Charles "Lafayette" Sackett spelled it the normal way
