- On Saturday afternoon, January the 18th, the remains of George W. Maybee, a prominent Sullivan County man, were laid to rest in the Narrowsburg cemetery.
He died at his late residence in Narrowsburg on January 15th of paralysis, impressive funeral services being held at the Maybee residence at one o'clock. A large concourse of friends and an escort composed of members of the Masonic Lodge of Jeffersonville, Narrowsburg, and delegates from other F. and A. M. lodges of Sullivan County followed the body to the cemetery and the last solemn rites of the order accorded the departed brother.
The deceased was born in the town of Liberty on June 27, 1842. At an early age he evinced a great desire for knowledge, attended the best schools that the county afforded and by hard work and perseverance he attained his ambition to be a teacher. He taught school successfully with much credit to himself as an educator. The field of these instructions covered many districts in Sullivan County including Youngsville, Jeffersonville and Callicoon Center. In the year 1878, while teaching school at Callicoon Center, he joined the Masonic Lodge at Jeffersonville.
On April 31st, in the year 1881, he purchased the Sullivan County Record, which paper he edited for three years. The deceased was always interested in newspaper work and up to the time of his death was not only a regular correspondent to various sheets, but was the local editor of the Narrowsburg Democrat.
In the year 1884 he changed his residence to Narrowsburg where he continued to reside till death claimed him. He was elected a Justice of the Peace, and served for twenty successive years, being well trained in the intricacies of the law.
He married Jane C. Lewis on November 21, 1866.
The surviving relatives are Jacob Maybee, Ex-District Attorney of Monticello; Ernest G. and Bruce E. Maybee, sons, of Narrowsburg, and one daughter, Cora E. Branning. Mr. Maybee was also a member of the M. E. Church of Narrowsburg
