Many people on ancestry have confused this George Garfield with George Gilbert of Maryland. That is because George Gilbert's WWI draft record has been linked incorrectly to this George and the birth date was copied over.
George Garfield lived his entire life in Ohio. The WWI draft record was filled out in Washington State.
