The George J. Korb family lived northwest of Moundville near Hackberry Cemetery. Three of their children are buried at Hackberry:
Verna Weber Steele tells that Young George Korb was a 1st cousin to G. A. Weber as George's mother was also a sister to Godfrey Zilliox although she was much younger. Therefore Godfrey's son's were not George's Uncles but 1st cousins. George's mothers name was Catherine, according to 1880 census, not Charlotte, which is what Godfrey's youngest sister's name was. In the Moundville book his father said they had 7 children, which also corresponds with the census record. It listed George, William Grant, Mary, Sarah, Walter, and Florence. Alice having died in Jan. of 1880 and the census done 6/17/1880. Therefore his mother's name was Catherine Annie Zilliox she married George J. Korb 5/24/1862.
