    • COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD. Page 481

      The late George W. Stover, ... was reared by his maternal grandmother, Anna Maria Yeagley, wife of John Yeagley, in what was then Haines (now Penn) township, Centre county. After a course in the district schools he studied higher branches at Mifflintown and Mifflinburg, and, thus prepared, began the work of teaching, in which he continued successfully for three or four years. In 1842 he began to learn the miller's trade at Pine Creek Mills, and after acquiring a knowledge of the work remained there for a time as an employee. Later he engaged in mercantile business at Nittany Hall. In 1848 Mr. Stover was married in Haines Township, by Rev. Mr. Reese, a Lutheran minister, to Miss Malinda A. Kreider, who was born September 13, 1829, in Lebanon, Penn., where her grandfather, Jacob Kreider, was a well-known citizen in his day. He and his wife, Catherine (Smith), reared a family of five children — two sons and three daughters — Philip, Mrs. Stover's father, being the eldest. The other son, Jacob, died in 1811. [2]
