Author: H. W. Beckwith (1881)

   Geo. W. Graham, farmer, Covington, was born in October, 1827, in Wabash
township, Fountain county, and is the son of Washington and Elizabeth L.
(Alkire) Graham, a sketch of whose lives is embodied in the sketch of W. M.
Graham. Geo. W. was raised on his father's farm, and schooled by the old
subscription system of that date. In 1870 he purchased the property where he now
lives, which is a splendid 160 acres of land, located about three miles east of
Covington, and on which he has made twenty-five per cent improvement. He is a
republican and a member of the order of A. F. and A. M. In 1866 Mr. Graham
married Miss Hanna A., daughter of John B. Crain. They have a family of five
bright and intelligent children: Maggie E., the twins Stella A. and Stanley C,
Frank W. and Johnnie W.
