At the age of twenty-eight, George enlisted at Genoa on August 7, 1862 to serve for three years. He was mustered in as a private in Company K of the 111th New York Infantry on August 20th

At the battle of Gettysburg in July 1863, George was wounded in the back by an exploding shell. He later rejoined his regiment and mustered out of service on June 4, 1865.

This notice appeared in the Tuesday, April 22, 1913, edition of the Auburn Semi-Weekly Journal:

"George Crouch, an aged resident of the town of Genoa, who resided near Goodyears Corners, dropped dead in the road Saturday, while on his way to call on a neighbor. He was found a few minutes after he fell, by a neighbor who was passing. Mr. Crouch was carried to his home and a physician called, but he was beyond medical assistance. Death came almost instantaneously and without warning. Mr. Crouch was a veteran of the Civil war and one of the oldest and best known residents of his township. Heart disease was the cause of death. Mr. Crouch was 82 years old.
He is survived by his widow and three sons and three daughters."
