Atlanta Constitution, 2 August 1894
The Death Roll.

Lumpkin, Ga., August 1-
Mr. George W. Ard, the veteran tax collector of Stewart county, died yesterday 
morning at 9 o'clock from congestive fever.  He has been tax collector for 
Stewart county for about thirty consecutive years, and made an honest, faithful 
officer.  He was a man of strong convictions, and determination, and as that 
stamp of men will always do, made some enemies.  He was a badly wounded 
confederate soldier and the people of his county honored him for many years.  
He was a consistent member of the Baptist church and Masonic fraternity.  He 
was buried on Tuesday from the Baptist church with Masonic honors.  He leaves a 
devoted wife and a large family of children.
