   Extractions: George Peacock was educated at home by his father until he was 17 years old, then he attended a school in Richmond, Yorkshire (one of the nearest towns to Denton) to prepare for entering Cambridge. In 1809 he became a student at Trinity College, Cambridge. As an undergraduate at Cambridge he made friends with John Herschel and Charles Babbage . In 1812 he graduated, placed second to John Herschel in the examinations. He also won the second Smith's prize. In 1814 Peacock was awarded a fellowship and, in the following year, he became a tutor and lecturer in Trinity College. While undergraduates Peacock, Herschel and Babbage planned to bring reforms to Cambridge and, in 1815, they formed the Analytical Society whose aims were to bring the advanced continental methods of calculus to Cambridge.

   Extractions: Some time in April 1857, mother Mary (Mason) Peacock died and was buried at the Rockdale Methodist Church Cemetery. It was after this time that George Sr. moved to unsettled territory up in Allamakee County, IA in Paint Creek Township, near Rossville and Waterville, IA. He operated a sawmill at Waterville and raised cattle on his property. He was apparently into land speculation at the time and bought and sold properties to arriving immigrants. His youngest sons Thomas (Tim) and George Jr. worked at the sawmill for him. In the summer of 1861, George Sr. died, but we do not know for certain where he is buried. (SEE NOTE 2 For Speculation on George's Probable Burial Site). Allamakee County IAGenWeb Index In the spring of 1862 with the Civil War cranking up, Thomas and George Jr. enlisted into the US Army at the Hotel in Waterville. They mustered into the US 16th Regulars (Infantry) forming up at McGregor, IA . Ruth, her husband Jonathan and children were living at the homestead. James and his family apparently stayed in the Dubuque area to run a business. George Jr. got some type of camp sickness, and was discharged from the Army in July 1862. Edmund decided to join the 27th Iowa Infantry, and turned over his executorship of his father's probate to a local lawyer. George Jr. re-enlisted in the 9th Iowa Calvary. By the war's end, Tim had marched along with General Sherman to Atlanta, GA , and then musters out at "Lookout Mountain" Chattanooga, TN at wars end. Edmund's unit fought around Mississippi and Louisiana area. George Jr. unit was located in somewhere in Arkansas. All three brothers were eventually honorably discharged around 1865-66. Up until this time the Allamakee Co. seat was at Lansing, IA and this is where they all seem to have end up.

   Extractions: Peaches and nectarines are frequently cultivated in well-drained pots, and are then usually trained as pyramids, and in some cases as half-standards. The potting must be done very firmly, using turf y loam with which a little mortar rubble has been mixed. The trees are to be top-dressed from time to time with well-decayed manure and turfy loam, and considerable space must be left in the pots for this and the watering.
