When George worked for the railroad, George Longstreet Stalnaker, a member of another Stalnaker family (relationship to his mother and stepmother, both Stalnakers, is unknown at this time) worked as a car builder for the railroad – and George’s younger (step) sister Victoria married him.

George’s death certificate indicates his mother’s name was Resa Stalnaker, but she was his stepmother, sister to his biological mother, America Stalnaker. [Stalnaker information contributed by Beth O’Dell, descendant of Victoria Anne Martin and descendants of William Beverly Stalnaker.(2001)]
