Deming, George H. (page 555), of Oakwood Township, was born on the farm on which he now lives, in section 25, on June 4, 1896, son of Frank and Margaret (Knoll) Deming. He acquired his education in the rural school of his district, and at home took up the occupation of farming, with which he soon became thoroughly conversant. In the fall of 1919 he rented his father's farm of 120 acres in section 25, on which he is now following general diversified farming and stock raising, keeping Shorthorn cattle of good grade and Chester-White swine. He is a member of the Plainview Co-operative Creamery Association and of the local Shipping Association. He is a veteran of the World's War, having served from Jun 24, 1918 to July 16, 1919, eight months of the time being spent overseas. Mr. Deming was married November 25, 1919, to Lydia Holland, of Watopa Township. She was born April 4, 1895, daughter of John and Mary (Lamey) Holland, who were early settlers in that township. Mr. and Mrs. Deming are members of the Catholic church.
