George William Gleason (deceased) came to this county in 1856, settling on section 13, Canesteo township, where he continued to make his home up to the time of his removal to the insane asylum at St. Peter, which occurred in October 1880. His death took place January 13, 1881, at the asylum, while that of his wife the year previous. The names of their children are as follows: Franklin David (deceased); Susan, now at Egan, D.T.; William M., with his sister; Charles Chester, who was born July 4, 1857 and has lived here ever since. In 1877 he was married to Ione Van Allen, of this county and they have two children: George Petrie and Howard Clayton. The subject of this sketch was born in St. Lawrence County, New York, March 20, 1826. His parents were David and Mary (Weed) Gleason. They moved to Bennington, Vermont, when George was but six years old. He was raised on a farm till seventeen years of age, at which time he was employed in Railroad construction in Jefferson County, New York. Here he met and married Annie Walradt, a native of that county. After coming to this state, he enlisted in the 1st Minn. Heavy Artillery and was stationed at Chattanooga. In 1876 he was elected to the legislature, and served with credit. The following year he secured a farm in Dakota, where two of his children now reside, and was apparently doing well till he became insane, as before stated.
