I have not found a death date for Georg and I am not sure the Elizabeth listed as a widow is the same as the one married to the Georg from Ribnig. There was another George Schmuck to Elizabeth family in Cleveland at about the same time.

However, I did make some headway. By 1918, Elizabeth is remarried to a George Dunneback. She is living at the same address from 1918 through 1930. In 1920, all of her children except Frances are living with her. Frances is married to someone named Frank Molzer. The children are Charles, Edward, Frank, George, and Clara.

In 1930, Charles, Edward, and Frank are no longer living with her but George and Clara remain. Frances is now back living with them and listed as a widow with one child --- Marie.

I have located Charles and Edward in the WW I draft registration but track them no further than 1920. Nothing in the 1930 census that fits for Ohio. I did find a George Schmuck who died in the 1970s in Cleveland whose dates fit but he is listed as never marrying.

I am getting this information from the rootsweb.com site.
