. . . that it was not a *family* surname. Perhaps a Dr Tamber helped at Georgia's birth, or perhaps a very close family friend with the surname Tamber was around at that time.
Have you tried finding baptismal records for Georgia which might show who her godparents were?

It is possible that a family friend may have been the namesake. They lived in a tiny community in very rural Texas and records were not kept as they should have been. It is very unlikely that a doctor was present in 1910 at Georgia's birth. Likely, they were members of a Baptist or Church of Christ church, in which they do not baptize at birth or have godparents. Thanks so much for your help. I wish there was an obvious explanation for this name. From your responses, I have learned that this name does not appear anywhere else and that is valuable knowledge. I appreciate that.
