   GEORGE WARNER farmer, P.O. Warminster, is a grandson of 
Amos Warner, who was a farmer in this township. His wife 
was Susanna Buckman, their only surviving child being 
Susanna, who is the wife of Ralph Smith, of Wrightstown. 
Those deceased are:  Thomas, George, Silas and Croasdale, 
the father of our subject, who was born in 1804, and died at 
Wrightstown in 1871. He was reared to farming, and lived in 
Upper Makefield until late in life, when he retired to 
Wrightstown and died there. He was a member of the Society 
of Friends, and an upright man. His wife was Ann Wiggins. 
They had eight children:  Mary Ellen, Susanna B., Ruth Ann,

Concordville seminary in Delaware county, and the Fairville

marriage began farming in Warminster township, where he has 
since lived. On January 29, 1880, he married Sallie J., 
daughter of Isaiah B. Ferry, who was formerly in business in 
Philadelphia, but is now retired. Mr. Warner formerly took 
an active interest in public affairs, but has never sought
