Ohio Biographies

George C. Howard

George C. Howard, like many other old-time residents of Bellville, came from the state of Maine. Howard had been a school teacher, but after he came to Ohio engaged in manufacturing. Later he read law with Judge Bartley, but confined his practice principally to the justices' court in the southern part of the county, as he never relinquished manufacturing pursuits. He was a born lawyer, capable of becoming eminent at the bar, had he given the profession his entire attention. H.W. Gurney, of this city (Mansfield) is a grandson of 'Squire Howard.
