"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 68, No 13, p 410, Mar. 28, 1910.
Dea. G. S. Babcock was born April 28, 1846, at Jackson Center, Ohio, and died at Toledo, Iowa, December 8, 1909, aged 63 years, 7 months and 10 days.
Brother Babcock was descended from a family of ministers. His grandfather was Eld. Simeon Babcock, one of the early pioneer preachers of Ohio; his father, Eld. Maxson Babcock, the organizer of the Carlton Seventh-day Baptist Church; his uncle, Eld. S. H. Babcock, now pastor of the Seventh-day Baptist Church at Little Genesee, N. Y.; another uncle, Milton S. Babcock, is a minister of the Seventh-day Adventist faith.
Brother Babcock did not make a profession until late in life [26]. In his religious life as in his business, he was somewhat slow and methodical in reaching a conclusion, but, when reached, it became the basis of his action.
He was baptized by Eld. H. P. Burdick in March of 1872 and joined the Carlton Seventh-day Baptist Church, which soon called him to the office of deacon. In this capacity he served until his removal to Milton, Wis., in 1894, where he transferred his membership to the Seventh-day Baptist Church of that place, and served that church in the same office until the time of his death.
On December 23, 1872, he was married to Harriet E. Bishop, who preceded him to the spirit land one year and twenty-one days.
Mr. Babcock leaves one son, Dr. Lester M. Babcock of Jackson Center, Ohio; one daughter, Blanche M., wife of Dr, George I. Hurley of Hoquiam, Wash.; one brother, B. C. Babcock of Garwin, Iowa; also a large number of more distant relatives, with many friends. All these mourn his loss.
The interment was in the Garwin Cemetery, December 11, 1909, by the side of his wife and son Loren, who passed away in infancy.
