OBIT - 1900 (from Genealogical & Historical Records of Preble CO., OH) Death of Col. George D. Hendricks Rich as Preble county is in its productions, it has been equally rich in its production of useful, strong men, among who we mention Col. George D. Hendricks, whose death we are pained to announce, occurred in his home in Eaton, last Thursday morning at 5 o'clock, after an extended illness. He was aged 95 years, 7 mnonths and 21 days. The subject of this sketch was born on the site of Camden, in a part now known as North Liberty street, October 3, 1805. He had varied experiences; was a soldier under Gen. Sam Houston and Col. Sidney Johnson in the war between Texas and Mexico, and then returned and settled in Eaton, where he became a most useful citizen; served in the Legislature, was county Auditor, county Sheriff, postmaster and devoted many years to school teaching. He was the first white male child born in Preble county. His father, David E. Hendricks, opened the first public inn at Eaton about 1806.
