Lotridge, George H., Little Falls, was born in 1811 and has lived on his 
present farm all his long life.  He and his two brothers, both of whom are 
dead, lived on adjoining land for over half a century as men grown, and had 
everything in common.  They owned 750 acres of land.  Mr. Lotridge married, 
January 30, 1838, Mary Rankin, and they have four daughters.  The youngest, 
Mary, lives at home.  One is the wife of Hamer Petrie, one the wife of R. M. 
Rankin and one of Mr. Houpt.  Mr. Lotridge has been commissioner of highways 
and is a member of the Grange.  His father and mother were born in Montgomery 
county, and his grandfather, Seeber, was a soldier in the Revolutionary war.  
The latter was wounded at Oriskany and was an invalid for the last twenty 
years of his life, though he lived to the age of 104 years.  The parents of 
George H. came to these parts when the section was a wilderness, and he can 
relate many interesting anecdotes of their early experiences in the wilds.
