George Barwick Fuller, farmer, P. O. Caryville, Dunn county, was born in 
Canada, June 24, 1837.  His parents were natives of Norfolk, England, and 
early in life were married there.  After leaving school George engaged for 
a short time as a clerk in a dry goods store, then came to the United States, 
and at Buffalo, N. Y., shipped as a sailor on the lakes, which occupation he 
continued for five years.  Becoming tired of that kind of a life he came to 
Eau Claire, Wis., and was employed in the service of the Eau Clarie Lumber 
company for some time, then went to Muskegon with Elias and Easau Tarrant.  
Later on he bought the interest of Mr. Kilpatrick, of the firm of T. Tarrant 
& Kilpatrick, shingle manufacturers, and was a member of that firm for nine 
years.  On account of a dull market they went out of business, and Mr. Fuller 
then engaged in farming in Rock Creek township, Dunn county, on a farm of 
144 acres, which he had bought some time before.  He has continued that 
occupation to the present time.  January 25, 1872, Mr. Fuller married Miss 
Jennie Powell, a daughter of John and Margaret Powell, natives of Wales, and 
to this union have been born ten children, namely:  Minnie, Elizabeth, Thomas, 
Abbie, Laura, John, Edward, James, Janette and Daniel.  Mr. Fuller is a 
republican in politics, and has been a school officer for the last twelve 
years, and at present fills the position of chairman of the town board.
