a native of Otsego county, N. Y., and the latter of Tioga county, Penn., who came to Hamlin township in 1825. They
reared a family of six children, of whom George O. is the second son. He was born in Hamlin township, McKean Co.,
Penn., June 8, 1839, received his education in the public schools of the township, and spent his boyhood days upon
the farm with his father. In May, 1864, he married Miss Phebe McKean, a daughter of Bernard and Bridget (Graham)
McKean, natives of Ireland. They have three children: Bertie, Eva and Bernard. After his marriage, Mr. Garlick
went to Minnesota with a team, but returned in one year, then went to Wilcox, Penn., and engaged in shoemaking,
although he had never learned the trade. Here he remained for ten years, at the end of which time he settled upon
the farm he now owns. In politics Mr. Gatlick votes with the Republican party, and has filled the following offices:
school director, road commissioner, town clerk, collector, overseer of poor, treasurer, and has filled the postmastership
of Kasson for six years.
