  • Notes 
    • In 1946 Georgia was convicted of forging checks and went to prison in Colfax, Washington. She was on a work release program until her debt was repaid. In 1950 when released, she went to Spokane, Washington with daughter Evelyn and her husband, Bob Thaves. She just walked out and disappeared. A private investigator was hired but she was never found. In 1978 she contacted her daughter, Jackie Thompson asking her to come and get her. She had falsely married a man named Elmer Buroker and changed her name to Nina Buroker. None of this was legal because she never divorced Rolland Weaver and she was still at the time of false marriage. Elmer had died and his family refused to take care of Georgia. She came back to live with Jackie which was short lived. She eventually lived in the Tekoa Care Center until her death. She lived in Spokane and went to school with Bing Crosby, supposedly. She used Social Security 537-30-5215 under Nina Buroker which was not legal. Her death record is under Nina Buroker.
