This card shows the name incorrectly as "Conners," but the proper form of the name is "Conner." According to his grandson, although the card indicates that George was only 1/4 Osage, he was in fact full blood Osage. George's biological parents were Wah-kon-tah shinka and Le-a-tsa, but they were killed when George was five years old. William Conner (1/2 Osage) and Adeline Newman-Conner (non-Indian) served as his foster parents.
