George Lanzius was an aero inventor and founded Lanzius Aircraft Co.
We have him, as a Dutch subject, filing from St. Louis Hotel, 34 East 32nd St, Manhattan, New York county, NYC, NY, assigning patent rights to the Lanzius Aircraft Co., a "Corporation of Delaware".[1]
We have him later filing from 9 East 39th Street, NYC, with text in his first person, though he is labelled in the document as deceased and with Evelyn Eliza Fairbanks Lanzius acting as executrix.[2] So, it may that we have an immigrant, quickly incorporating, dynamically and-or opportunistically between states, settling, doing work which later took on greater import. See Lanzius Aircraft Co.. See legal successor for points possibly comparable to the role of Evelyn Eliza Fairbanks Lanzius as "executrix".
This article describes Lanzius's work with great optimism and shows a picture of an elegant Lanzius biplane. The article is by Stanley Yale Beach in Popular Science Monthly, December 1920.
We have him as a Technician filing, at least once, from Hong Kong.[3]
He seems to have been died between 1920 and 1923, according to this source which also indicates that he filed Patent US-1920-1459223 but Evelyn Elizabeth Fairbanks Lanzius as the executrix at the time it was granted.
