Personal Sketch

George W. Mumma, Madison [Township]

He was reared on a farm, and he yet pursues that honorable calling. His educational advantages were limited, but by perserverance and self-study he has acquired a good practical education.

In politics he is a Republican, and is in favor of good schools. On the 20th of August, 1874, he, in company with his brother Aaron, purchased the old "homestead," of one hundred and sixty-seven acres, which is located three and one-half miles northwest from Dayton. On another page of this work may be soon a fine view of Mr. Mumma's premise; his farm is well watered and timbered. Two fine portraits, one of himself, and one of his lady, may also be seen.
