George Eley is a native of Pennsylvania and was born in Centre county, Feb. 28, 1807.  He is the son of John and Catharine (Johnsonbach) Eley, also natives of the same State.  He is of German extraction, his grandfather and great-grandfather being natives of that country.  When thirty-eight years old, George came to this county from Ohio and settled on a farm in Richland where he remained until 1875, then came to Juda.  He is now comfortably situated and lives upon the income of his money, which he loans.  Mr. Eley has been married three times, and his first two wives are buried in Austin Cemetery.  His present wife was Mrs. Jemima Blackford, formerly Jemima Dennis. He is the father of ten children, seven of whom are now living.  He is a member of the Church of Christ (Disciples).  Mrs. Eley formerly was a member of the Baptist Church...
