He was born November 24, 1846, in York Township, son of Jacob and Rebecca (Crile) Reighard. His parents were Pennsyl- vanians and pioneer settlers of Fulton county. George Reighard attended the district schools and made good use of such advantages of learning as were available to a boy in Fulton county sixty years ago. He married when he was about twenty years of age and thereafter lived for some years with his parents. The first land he owned was forty acres, fifteen acres cleared and improved. Eventually he bought other land until his old homestead, known as the Maple Drive Farm, contains ninety- six acres, all under cultivation. Mr. George Reighard lived there until the spring of 1909, when he turned the farm over to his daughter, Mrs. Roscoe Dunbar, and then moved to an adjoining place of twenty-five acres where he and his wife enjoy the comforts of a good home and the friendship and neighbors of their old com munity. April 9, 1866, Mr. Reighard married Elizabeth Elton, who was born in England, September 1, 1848. Her parents, Thomas and Jane (Young) Elton, came to this country in 1857, and for seven years lived on a farm in Cuyahoga county, Ohio, and then moved to Swan Creek Township in Fulton county.
