Career
Having studied law in New York, he returned home to Plymouth, established himself as a pillar of the community and helped to bring a railroad route to Plymouth (much to the chagrin, it is said, of present-day residents of the community) through what is now known as "Old Village" or "Lower Town". Later in life, having dedicated much of his effort to education, he donated the land, which was once part of the family farm, to what became the site of the old downtown Plymouth High School. George Anson Starkweather died at the age of 81.
