Some interesing notes: George's father was an Indian hunter and was disliked by the Indians. His wife would bring him food after dark so others wouldn't know where he was. George was "rough-hewn." His family was in construction. One of his brothers was put over the side of Boulder Dam to make holes for the blasting. -- Interview with Robert Sauls (George's nephew) by L Sauls in 2007.
