GEORGE STEVENS, SR. AND
ADDIE GERMANE STEVENS
George Stevens was one of the early settlers in northern Wisconsin. With his brother, Franklin, and other relatives, he arrived in Black River Falls, in 1866.
He was born in Luzerne County, Pa. After his mother's death, his family moved to DeKalb, I11. Shortly after the purchase of a farm, his father died and the two sons lived with their grandparents for eight years. One daughter, Amelia Stevens Goff, was born during his first marriage. He married Addie Germane. In about 1884, he located at Amacoy Lake and built a home next to the home of his brother, Franklin. Highway 40 passed between the farmhouse and the barn. The pump was close to the
road. It was not an uncommon sight to see Uncle George pumping water in the big wooden tub for the cows. A visit to Aunt Addie's parlor was, indeed, special. The door was usually closed, as it was a very special place. Uncle George's funeral was in that parlor. Something else very special about Aunt Addie was her big, round, white
cookies. If we sat down quietly or carried in some wood for her, we might be treated to one. Two sons, Frank and George, were born at their Amacoy home. Frank married Mable Bates. Their children were lone Martin dale, Woodrow, Max and Maxine Martindale. George married Celia Parker. Their children were Herbert, Claude, Wesley and Helen Briggs. George and Addie raised a grandson, Rollo Goff, after the death of
his mother.
