GEORGE WOLF

    George Wolf, a farmer, was born near Strasburg, Germany, in 1810, and in 1837 embarked to the United States and landed at New York.  He was a cooper by trade, and learned his trade in his native county.  He located at Albany, N. Y., working at his trade one year, when he moved to Amsterdam, N. Y., and followed his trade in that State six or seven years.  In 1845, he came to this county and worked at his trade in various places.  He purchased fifty acres of his present farm in 1847, the year of his marriage, and settled on the same the following year.  His wife's maiden name was Barbara Dellinger, a daughter of Leonard Dellinger.  This union has been blest with three children, two of whom are living.  The oldest, Conrad, married Amy MacKanada, in 1876, and has three children living Anne, George J. and Lens.  Mr. W. has made subsequent purchases, until his farm reached 266 acres; sixty-six sores of this land he disposed of to his oldest son, who resides with him.  He and his family are connected with the Lutheran Church, and he numbers among the enterprising farmers of the county.
