Georgie was born Georgianna Jones (March 6, 2008 episode) on March 7, 1995, however, it was changed to 1988. She died on December 17, 2007, at the age of 19.
Georgie was conceived when professional spy Frisco came back to town to visit Felicia and his first daughter Maxie, in need of a heart transplant. Felicia and Frisco were divorced. They slept together in their relief Maxie was going to live. Georgie was conceived. She was named Georgie because Maxie liked the name George. For a time Felicia wasn't sure whether Frisco or her fiancée Mac Scorpio was Georgie's father. Paternity testing ultimately proved Frisco was her biological father. Frisco saw Georgie once when she was a baby, but has never been involved in raising her.
Georgie was kidnapped as a baby by evil serial killer Dr. Ryan Chamberlain, who had dated and stalked Felicia for a time. Ryan renamed Georgie "Celeste." Georgie was eventually recovered. Ryan ultimately met a fiery end. Felicia and Mac married a few years after Georgie's birth. Mac has been a father in all but name to both Maxie and Georgie, even after his marriage to Felicia ended. Both Georgie and Maxie call and refer to Mac as their father.
Georgie was viewed as the smart, sensible sister in her teenage years, in comparison with her feistier older sister. Wanting to break out of that stereotype and show her cousin Lucas Jones she was mature so he would like her, she recruited Dillon Quartermaine as a stand-in boyfriend. Her plans went wrong when the two fell in love with each other. Soon after the couple began dating, Dillon got involved with the mob. Georgie was not pleased. When mob boss Lorenzo Alcazar's niece Sage came to town, Georgie became jealous when Sage became infatuated with Dillon. The couple split up for a short time in 2004 when Dillon betrayed Georgie by sleeping with Sage. To make Dillon jealous after sleeping with Sage, Georgie hired a boy to pretend to be her boyfriend. The two couples checked into the Port Charles Hotel the night the PC Hotel Fire went down. Both couples survived the ordeal. Romantic interest was restored in Dillon and Georgie. In August 2004, Georgie and Dillon were trapped in the Quartermaine mansion with the Q's and the rest of the Port Charles teen scene while a killer ran around the mansion. They narrowly survived and went back to their normal lives. In March 2005, Georgie and Dillon made love for the first time. In February 2006, Dillon was infected by a deadly virus, as was half of Port Charles. Assuming death was hovering over him, Georgie and Dillon decided to get married in the hospital chapel before he took his last breath. Dillon eventually started improving because his blood began creating natural antibodies against the disease.
In June 2006, Lulu Spencer set her eyes on Dillon. She schemed with Diego Sanchez Alcazar, who wanted Georgie to himself, to break the newlyweds up. Lulu lied to Dillon and said she had witnessed Georgie and Diego doing the deed. When confronted by Dillon, Georgie denied she and Diego had done anything behind his back. Dillon chose not to believe her. Later, realizing his marriage to Georgie would soon be over, Lulu got her wish and bedded Dillon. Dillon and Georgie divorced but later got back together and started dating again. Not long after, Georgie and Dillon both realized the spark in their relationship was no longer there. They mutually decided to end things between them. Dillon was later approached by his brother Ned Ashton, about moving to California to pursue his dream of becoming a movie director. Realizing there was nothing left for him in Port Charles, he decided to take Ned up on the offer, but not before Georgie, Dillon, and the Quartermaines shared a tearful goodbye.
Georgie remained a back burner character for the next few months, until she began to form a crush on Damien Spinelli. Georgie was heartbroken when Spinelli made plans with Nadine Crowell to go to the Black and White Ball together. After a long night of death and stalking, most guests survived the Ball. Georgie asked Spinelli to join her and her family at the Scorpio House for Thanksgiving dinner. Following Thanksgiving was Emily Quartermaine's funeral, to which Dillon came back to attend. Georgie told Dillon she had met someone new, but didn't mention Spinelli.
Georgie was worried for Maxie's life after she was nearly strangled to death and received a text message from the TMK and feared he would try to kill her sister again. She became suspicious of Maxie's boyfriend, Cooper Barrett, after she saw him watch Maxie constantly and text message someone at the same time her sister was text messaged by the killer. Georgie became determined to find out more about who he was and his past. She teamed up with Spinelli to prove Cooper was the killer.
Spinelli talked to his friend Jason Morgan frequently about Georgie. Jason told him it was obvious Georgie had a crush on him and wanted him to ask her out. Spinelli was stunned but elated. He told Jason that Georgie was beautiful and smart and could have anyone she wanted. He was confused as to why someone like Georgie could accept someone like him for whom he was and love him. He considered what to do now he knew she had feelings for him.
Georgie died on December 17, 2007, after being strangled to death in the park, which made her the third victim of the Text Message Killer (TMK) to die. Her body was tearfully discovered by Damien Spinelli. Spinelli called the police and tried to revive her but his efforts were in vain. Mac, Maxie, and Robin were all devastated to find out Georgie had been murdered. Maxie had to be taken to General Hospital and be admitted as a patient from shock after she saw her sister's dead body. Maxie told Robin that Georgie's death had been unfair because she had been smart, funny, kind, generous, serious, mature, and responsible; and she had accepted others for who they were and was good towards everyone. Maxie stated that it should have been her to die and have her body left in the snow since she had been a terrible sister to Georgie. Spinelli talked to Jason about who Georgie was, the guilt he had over his inability to protect her; and he talked about his not being able to realize Georgie’s feelings for him until it was too late and his loss over her death. He asked Jason to help him prove Cooper Barrett was the killer and make him pay. Spinelli later lit a candle and made a remorseful offering to Georgie's spirit so she would know he would miss her.
Felicia Jones returned to Port Charles in order to attend Georgie's funeral. She told Maxie she had been with Frisco. Georgie had tried to stay in contact with her by letters. Dillon came back to town and went to Kelly's, where he told Mike Corbin and Lulu Spencer he had come back to see Georgie and ask her to go to Montreal, Canada over the holidays with him to see what he would be filming. He was devastated to find out from Lulu that Georgie was dead. Dillon went to see Felicia and Maxie and comforted them over their loss over Georgie. He talked to Spinelli about who Georgie was, his love for her, and that he had been a fool to let her go, but Spinelli comforted him and told him to be grateful for the time he had together with her since he, too, had not realized her own feelings for him until it was too late.
Georgie's funeral was attended by Mac; Felicia; Maxie; Robin; Dillon; Spinelli; Lulu and Lucky Spencer; Milo; Sonny; Carly; Jax; Cooper; Skye, Tracy, and Edward Quartermaine; Alice; Bobbie Jones; Louis Cerullo; Mike Corbin; Patrick Drake; Lainey Winters; Epiphany Johnson; Ric Lansing; and Mayor Floyd. Maxie delivered Georgie's eulogy where she talked about who her sister was and how Georgie had touched other people's lives and thanked Mac Scorpio, Dillon Quartermaine, Bobbie Jones, Robin Scorpio, and Damien Spinelli for the ways they cared about and loved Georgie. She berated Felicia for abandoning Georgie and her and told her to leave the funeral or she would since she (Felicia) had no right to be there. Felicia left. Maxie later her saw her crying at Georgie's grave.
Robin was horrified at Maxie's outburst at Felicia, went to see Patrick, and the two made love, causing Robin to get pregnant. Robin saw the baby as a blessing from Georgie. Spinelli was shocked after the police had made him a major suspect in Georgie's murder before other evidence pointed to different people. The evidence against Spinelli came in the form of emails Georgie had never sent to him where she stated except around girls he was the smartest and sweetest guy she had ever met and she thought she was falling in love with him. Lucky told him he planned to figure out it was that Spinelli killed Georgie and arrest him since he was sure it had been him, which stunned Spinelli. Jason told Lucky to back off of Spinelli and promised to help get him out of the trouble he was in. Spinelli later asked to keep the emails which he dubbed "Georgie's secret pain" and tried to write a reply of his own. However, he was unable to since he was discouraged by the fact Georgie would not be able to read it. Maxie was inconsolable over Georgie's death and lashed out at everyone, from name calling, insults, yelling, and arguments with others to completely trashing Kelly's restaurant. Felicia became determined to find Georgie's killer but left town after Mac told her she had no right to.
Spinelli and Maxie teamed up to find out who was the Text Message Killer, prove Cooper Barrett's innocence, and make TMK pay for the deaths of Leticia, Emily, Georgie, and Cooper. Two of their major suspects included Logan Hayes and Johnny Zacchara. In the end, they found out it was Diego Alcazar who told Sam McCall that Georgie had died because she received a text message meant for Maxie, went to the park alone in an effort to protect Maxie from him, and saw who he was, so he killed her for being at the wrong place at the wrong time and admitted her death was the only one he regretted.
Georgie appeared to Maxie on March 26, 2010, and March 29, 2010, as she battled pneumonia in the hospital.
