According to 1880 census, was living at the time with William Woodsum Canwell and Rebecca J. Murch Canwell.

Martha E(meline Canwell)
Willie W.
Alton A.
George W. Sr. widower

Here’s another interesting note: on the census image there is a note next to George W. Andrews’s name that says 1C3R--first cousin three times removed. Whoever wrote this is very closely related to me (KCA), since George W. Andrews is MY first cousin three times removed as well.
