NoteA record has yet to be found that states the place of birth for George Heaton Lemon, other than that he was born in Canada. Considering that his father was already a barrister in Guelph weeks prior to his marriage, it may be that George was born there, though there are other possibilities.

Familysearch provides the image from the page in the Ramsey County register of deaths for 1921. Here, we find his date of birth, 10 July, 1862, and his place of birth shown as Canada. His date of death is shown as 10 May, 1921, and that he died in White Bear Village, White Bear Lake, Minnesota. He is described as a salesman. His parents are named as Andrew and Laura Lemon. More information than this is not provided.

Find-a-Grave has a photo of his gravestone in Saint John in the Wilderness Episcopal Cemetery at White Bear Lake, Ramsey County, Minnesota. There, his dates are given as 1862-1921.

George has not been found in the Canadian 1881 census or the U.S. 1880 census and he has not been found in the 1885 Minnesota State census. He is, however, in Newport Township, Washington County, Minnesota, at the time of the 1895 Minnesota State census. There he is shown as a 'Gro Merchant'. (Grocery?)

It seems likely that George's brother Edward spent at least some time with him, for, according to an affidavit signed by Edward in in July of 1891, he was located in St. Paul, Ramsey Co., Minnesota.
