Google Books. Ed. Warner, Beers & Co. Unigraphic, 1883, 17 Apr. 2013. Web. 04 Sept. 2013. G.W. BURNWORTH, saw miller and merchant, North Washington, was born near Fall City, Fayette Co., Penn., June 3, 1834. He is the son of John G. and Elizabeth Burnworth. His grandparents on the paternal side were of English, and those on the maternal side of Pennsylvania Dutch descent. He is the only son of a family of twelve, of whom five of the daughters are living. His uncle, W. H. H. Whysong, resides in Steuben County, Ind., and an aunt, Mary Ann Morrison, in Washington Township, Hardin Co., Ohio. Our subject lived with his parents until near his majority, when on May 1, 1855, he was married to Sarah Leonard. After his marriage, in 1861, when President Lincoln made the call for 75,000 men, he enlisted in the State militia of the Seventeenth Pennsylvania Regiment, and was at Grafton, Va., until the time of his enlistment had expired; he fought in several skirmishes between the contending armies, after which he received his discharge and returned home. On October 27, 1862, he came with his family to North Washington, Ohio; he had learned the shoe-maker's trade and worked on the shoe bench until August 22, 1864, when he enlisted in the United States Army under Maj. John Pierce, now of Kenton, Ohio, and was placed in Company I, One Hundred and Seventy-fifth Ohio Volunteer Infantry; he served under Gen. G. H. Thomas during the Hood raid. and was discharged in June. 1865. When he came to Ohio, G. W. Burnworth was worth $115 all told, but he had made some money in the army, and in 1867 went into the saw mill business, in which he has since been enaged. On the 14th of September, 1868, his wife died, leaving four children--Laura Bell, Adoniram Judson, Betty, Thomas, deceased, and Sarah Orena; he subsequently married Amanda A., daughter of Samuel and Mary Ann Hively. From this union there has been four children--Samuel V., John, Elmer, and Charles. In 1881, Mr. Burnworth opened in the grocery business; he built a good business room in North Washington, in 1882, stocked it with groceries and dry goods, and is now doing a thriving business; he is also engaged in business as a saw miller and an apiarist, making bees and honey a special study.
