GEORGE BIRCH, farmer, P.O. Meadville, was born February 12, 1829, in this township, son of John and Hannah (Royal) Birch, the former a native of Pennsylvania, the latter of New Jersey; also a grandson of James Birch, who took up a tract of 400 acres, still chiefly in the hands of the Birch family. John Birch was born in Philadelphia in 1791, and when four years old moved with his parents to this township. He reared a family of twelve children, nine of whom survive: Susannah, Peter, Henry, George, Cynthia, Sylvester, Almira, Amanda, L.C. Peter married Priscilla Collom; Henry married Esther McIntire; Cynthia married Mr. Rawson; Sylvester married Jane Bush; Almira married C. Bates. Our subject resides upon the old home farm, and his two unmarried sisters are his housekeepers. Mr. Birch is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church; is a Democrat in politics.
