GEORGE HEIKES, Harrison
This gentleman is a namesake of his father and now occupies the homestead upon which that father settled forty years ago. he was born in the year 1814 in Cumberland County, PA. In 1835, Miss Sophia, daughter of William and Susanna Patton, became his bride. Their only child, Dora, at marriageable age became the companion of Mr. C. B. Mumma, who still resides a near neighbor to her father.
For thirty years, the sea of life ran smoothly; but ten years ago death snatched from him his wife Sophia. But the fates decreed that he was not to remain alone. Three years later, he joined his fortunes to those of Miss Mary Creider, and the 3rd of January, 1867, they sealed their nuptial bond. It is her face that is found by the side of her husband's portrait, among the illustrations of their Township. The fruits of their union have been two daughters, Ann Nora and Effie, born respectively.
In possessions of this world, Mr. Heikes is eminently independent; the same having been achieved by hard toil and judicious management. Socially, he knows only to respect, and is known only to be respected.
