GEORGE H. CARRICO is a son of George G. and Elizabeth (Cissell) Carrico, who
were born in Kentucky and there grew to maturity, married, and lived till
1818, when they came to Daviess County, Ind., and there spent the remainder
of their days in agricultural pursuits.  The father died in 1858, and the
mother in 1845.  George H. was born in Daviess County, Ind., in 1827, and
at the age of twenty-one he began to battle his own way in the world.  After
farming for about one year, he purchased 200 acres of land, mostly on credit,
and soon paid for that and 170 acres more.  In 1850 he was married to Eliza-
beth Burris, born in 1834.  About one year after marriage she died, leaving
one child--David.  In 1859 Mr. Carrico was married to Mary A. Summers, born
in 1841, daughter of Thomas and Susan E. (O'Brien) Summers.  Mr. and Mrs.
Carrico became the parents of these seventeen children:  Sarah, Susan,
