General Notes: Husband - George M. Warrick
He was educated in the schools of his native township, and worked on his father's farm until sixteen years of age, when, his parents being dead, he came to Washington, Pennsylvania, and passed one summer on a farm adjoining the town. He then commenced learning the trade of carpenter, and two years later began the business for his own account. When about twenty years of age he went to Chicago, then a growing city of 30,000 inhabitants. Returning to Washington, he for some years followed contracting, after which, in 1858, he embarked in mercantile business, forming a partnership with his brother William W., the style of the firm being G. M. & W. W. Warrick. About 1866 they bought the Washington flouring mills, in partnership with John M. Wilson, carrying on both it and the grocery business. Some seven years later his brother retired from both concerns, and he and Wilson continued together till 1887, when they sold out the mill to Zelt Bros., Wilson also retiring from the grocery. Mr. Warrick then associated his two sons with him in the grocery business.
He was a member of the M. E. Church beginning at eighteen years of age. Politically he was a Democrat up to the Buchanan election, when he enlisted in the Republican ranks.
