Basic genealogy info: DAVIS, GEORGE W., president of Second National Bank, of Toledo, Ohio, was born near Bellows Falls, Vermont, August 17th, 1821. His parents were Hiram and Eliza (Wheeler) Davis, the former a native of Vermont and the latter of New Hampshire. ... Mr. Davis established the Marine State Bank, of Toledo, and became its president; and in 1864 he also established the Second National Bank, of which he was also made president, though the following year the Marine Bank was merged into the Second National, of which Mr. Davis has been uninterruptedly president for the twenty years of its existence. The history of this bank is one of uniform success; having passed all panics unscathed, it has always paid good dividends, and to-day, with a capital of $350,000, has a surplus of $225,000. Mr. Davis is recognized as a financier of great shrewdness, and, with an experience of nearly a quarter of a century at the head of banking institutions, he occupies a place among the leading bankers of the State. Aside from his banking interests, he has been for many years identified with many of the leading enterprises in and about Toledo, and but few citizens of that place have been equally zealous and active in their efforts to enhance her growth and give her name and character among the leading commercial cities of the country. He was one of the original projectors of the Canada Southern, now Michigan Central, Railroad, and has been a director of the same ever since the organization of the company.
