G.H. REDICK
April 11, 1912 Manning Monitor

George H. Redick was born in Emlenton, Pennsylvania, November 10, 1825, and died in Springfield Missouri, April 5, 1912, aged 86 years, 4 months and 25 days. When thirty years of age he came to Davenport, Iowa. He was married to Mary Ann Stevens in 1853. Mr. and Mrs. Redick came to Carroll County in the spring of 1874 and lived here until about ten years ago. They then moved to Pocahontas, Iowa, where they resided, until August 1911, when they went to Springfield Missouri, to make their home with their son E.G.

To Mr. and Mrs. Redick were born eleven children of whom six together with the wife and mother survive.

The children are W.H. Redick of Dunlap, Iowa; J.H.T. of Seattle, Washington; Sarah Hellen (Mrs. J.A.) Johnson of Winterset, Iowa; J.A. Redick of Davenport, Washington; Charles M. Redick of Corpus Christi, Texas, and Emerson Garfield Redick of Springfield, Missouri. In early life the deceased united with the Presbyterian Church of which he ever remained a faithful member.

The body was brought to Manning, Iowa, were services were held from the Presbyterian Church conducted by Rev. Scoggan, of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the body was laid to rest beside a daughter in the Iowa Township Cemetery.

DIED AT NINETY-SIX YEARS
From a letter received by C.A. Grant we learn of the death at Springfield, Missouri, on the 5th instant, of George H. Redick, who until about a year or so ago was a resident of Pocahontas County. Mr. Redick was 96 years of age, retained a robust constitution until very late in life. He was the father of C.M. Redick, who was in the abstract business in Pocahontas previous to his removal to Corpus Christi, Texas.

The remains of the old gentleman were brought to Manning, Iowa, for interment.

The intimacy between the Grant and Redick families is one of long standing, dating back to the days when this country was rather sparsely populated, and has been kept up through all these years.
