George Sykes (Wisconsin legislator)
George Sykes (sources also spell it Sikes) (December 1816 – November 29, 1881) was an American farmer from Sharon, Wisconsin who held various local elected offices, and served a single one-year term in 1850 as a Free Soil Party member of the Wisconsin State Assembly representing part of Walworth County.〔("Members of the Wisconsin Legislature 1848–1999 State of Wisconsin Legislative Bureau. Information Bulletin 99-1, September 1999. p. 112 )〕
== Background ==
Sykes was born in Connecticut in December 1816, and in his childhood moved with his family to the state of New York.〔Beckwith, Albert Clayton. ''History of Walworth County Wisconsin: Vol. 1'' Indianapolis: B. F. Bowen & Co., 1912; pp. 398, 557〕 In his youth he traveled in the south and west of the United States.〔(Hall, Ginny. "Mystery Place: Early property owners migrated here from out East" ''Walworth County Today'' December 5, 2012 )〕
Sykes married Elvira Perkins, a native of Vermont. The two of them moved to Wisconsin Territory in 1843, and settled a quarter-section (160 acres). They improved the land, built a house, and took up general farming and livestock raising. They would eventually have five children: Charles, George R., Clara, Martha and Mary.
