• Notes

  George received a good education and in early manhood began preaching for the Free Will Baptist church, but when the slavery question began to be agitated , he became a Wesleyan Methodist, and for many years preached for that church in the counties of Steuben, Allegany, Schuyler and Tompkins, New York and in Sullivan, Bradford, Tioga and Potter counties , Pennsylvania. He first came to Tioga county in the spring of 1863, and in 1865 purchased a farm in Charleston township, on which his son resided up to 1882. He then sold it and bought one in the northeast corner of Covington township, where he resided until a year and a half before his death when he was stricken with paralysis and removed to the home of his son, Franklin B.
