GEORGE W. BAILEY, born in Shelby County, Ky., May 19, 1838, was a son of
Alfred and Elizabeth (Moore) Bailey, both natives of Shelby County.  His
father was twice married.  By his first marriage there were two
children, only one living till maturity.  By the second marriage there
were seven children, six sons and one daughter, six now living.  George
W. was next to the youngest child.  When he was eleven years old his
parents moved to Jackson County, Mo., where they both died in 1853.  In

most severe one being Prairie Grove, Ark., Dec. 7, 1862.  After the war
he came to Daviess County and clerked for his brother, James G. Bailey,
in the grocery business in Owensboro, ten months.  He then engaged in
farming about five years, and afterward returned to Owensboro and
remained eighteen months.  He then lived a short time on a farm above

years.  In June, 1879, he bought the farm of 131 acres where he now
resides, in Murray Precinct, on the Green River road.  He was married
