Notes:
George's sister Cynthia married Gustava's brother John whose mother was
also George's father's 2nd wife.
This branch of the family (except for Liner) seems to have assumed the
surname spelling of Parent instead of Parrent.

By 1900, Gustava and the children
were living with George's half-brother. She says she is a widow but
George's cemetery stone says he died in 1905 (I believe the stone is incorrect
as it shows Gustava's death as 1919 when she died in 1918)
