"History of Linn County Iowa : from its earliest settlement to the present time"
George W. Randall spent the later years of his life in honorable retirement in Cedar Rapids and prior to that time was closely associated with the agricultural interests of Linn county. His honesty in business affairs, his reliability in citizenship and his devotion to the welfare of family and friends were qualities which won for him the high regard of all with whom he was associated. He was born in Kendall, Orleans county, New York, in 1828, his parents being Amos and Fanny (Tabor) Randall. The father was a native of Massachusetts, while the mother was born in Vermont. In their family were six children, including George W. Randall, who resided in the Empire state up to the time of his mar- riage, which was celebrated in 1854, the lady of his choice being Miss Ann S. Avery, who was born in Massachusetts and was a daughter of Jeremiah and Edith P. (Hoar) Avery and a cousin of George Frisbie Hoar, the distinguished statesman.
For about two years after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Randall continued to reside in the east and in 1855 sought a home in the middle west, settling first in Rockford, Illinois. Her parents accompanied them to that state and there her mother died in 1867, after which the father came to Cedar Rapids and passed away in this city in 1891. Although he had reached the venerable age of ninety- one years at the time of his death, he was active to the last, retaining his mental and physical faculties to a remarkable degree. Mr. and Mrs. Randall continued their residence in Illinois for about eleven years and in 1867 came to Linn county, Iowa, where he purchased a farm, continuing its cultivation until 1880. During that period he energetically and perseveringly carried on the work of the fields and won such good results that as the years passed he accumulated a comfortable competence. He then retired from active business life and removed to Cedar Rapids, where he built a beautiful residence at No. 1414 East First avenue. For eighteen years thereafter he was permitted to enjoy his new home and the companionship of his family, but in 1898 was called to his final rest, leaving a widow and four children to survive him. The family numbered two sons and two daughters: Charles W., who is now in Mason City, Iowa; Rev. Amos A. Randall, living in La Crosse, Wisconsin; Mary R., the wife of C. O. Bates, one of the professors in Coe College at Cedar Rapids; and Fannie R., the wife of E. R. Watters, of Seattle, Washington. Mrs. Randall was educated in western New York, where she taught school for several years. She is a lady of broad and liberal culture and innate refinement and is a consistent member of the Presbyterian church of Cedar Rapids, with which she has been identified for forty-one years, taking an active and helpful interest in its work and contributing generously to its support as her financial resources have permitted.
