Notes:
[inglis family.and Keith .4FBK.ged.FBK.FBK.FBK.FTW] He was born premature andweighed under two pounds. How he survived was a miracle; they kept him on an oven door and being August, it was probably quite warm. His mother and father were only married 8 months and 12 days and it caused quite a scandal among s ome members of the family, but George was probably under 8 months when he wa sborn, according to the doctor.
