Biography

Biography in "History of Medina County and Ohio" Published by Baskin & Battey,
Historical Publishers, 1881
George C. Pearson, farmer;P. O. Mallet Creek; is a native of the township in which he
lives, and was born Aug. 26, 1833. Arza and Achsah (Lampson) Pearson, his parents,
are among the old and time-honored residents of York Township, and much of them
and the Pearson family will be found in another part of this work. The subject of this
biography passed his youth and early manhood with his parents, and, when his
majority was reached, he embarked on his own responsibility, by working his father's
farm until he was married. Oct. 15, 1862, he was united in marriage with Miss Lydia
L. Drake, daughter of Daniel and Almira Drake, and by her had two children - Frank
Leland, born in York Sept. 15, 1863, and Lulu May, born in York April 30, 1865. Mrs.
Pearson was born in Dickinson, N.Y., Aug. 2, 1841, and was one of a family of four
children, Seymour, Sumner and Lyman being the three besides herself. The two
former served in the late war, Seymour as Sergeant. Seymour died at Ft. Scott, from
disease contracted in the army, while Sumner was killed by a ball from the enemy, at
the battle of Winchester. Lyman is a teacher in the Reform School, at Plainfield, Ind.
Mr. Pearson's wife died from consumption, in July, 1868. Mr. Pearson is the owner of
60 acres of good land. He is a Republican in politics, and an intelligent and
enterprising citizen.¹

Obituary

From the Bennington Banner November 19, 1975
Carl Bump, long-time superintendant of White Chaple Cemetery, died unexpectedly Tuesday evening, at Putnam Memorial Hospital, where he was taken by the Bennington Rescue Squad after being stricken at Beshara's Market. He was 66.

The funeral will be held at 10:30 a.m. Friday at the Mahar and Son Funeral Home, with the Rev. Richard Campbell, pastor of the First United Methodist Church officiating. Burial will follow in the family plot at White Chapel Cemetery.

A native of Shaftsbury and resident of the White Chapel Road, he was employed for many years at the Proctor Farm in Bennington, and later worked for Bennington College and the Prospect School in North Bennington, before retiring.

He was born July 31, 1909, to Fred and Marion Bump, and received his education in the Shaftsbury schools. He was known for his fondness for children and his kindness towards animals.

He was first married to Clara Honn, and she died several years ago. In 1957, he married Mary Houghton, who survives, as does a son James A. of Bennington, seven grandchildren, two sisters, Julia Harrington and Burdella Gates, both of Bennington; and aunt, Phoebe Bump Moon of Shaftsbury Hollow, also step-children; step grandchildren, nieces, nephews and cousins.

Calling hours at the funeral home are from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday. Memorial contributions may be made to the Bennington Rescue Squad.
