FIRST 100 YEARS NOLAN COUNTY TEXAS:
GEORGE WARNER ALTIZER
Page 92
The marriage of George Warner Altizer and Bertha Taylor in Cherokee, Texas, in 1898, began a chapter in Nolan County history that is still being written.
After the birth of their first child, a son, they decided to leave San Saba County and move to West Texas. After a long wagon ride of several days, they settled in Hylton, where their daughter was born and where G. W. carried the mail. He rode horseback into Sweetwater daily, becoming the sole contact between the pioneers of Hylton and the outside world. One day, he returned from his route to find his daughter seriously ill. Before he could fetch a doctor, miles away, his two-year-old baby, Deloris, had died. The next night his daughter, Lerline was born.
In 1903, he moved to Roscoe where he began moving houses with Gus Martin by mule team. In 1904, he moved to Sweetwater where he went into the house moving business for himself and built his home, where, a year later, his son, Buster, was born. He bought the first Orient depot and moved it to his home place to use as a tool house. It is still in use. In 1906, another daughter, Callie, and in 1914, another daughter, Doris, were born.
His wife, Bertha, was a member of a small group of Christians who were meeting in each other's homes or any place available, so G. W. donated the land for a small church building where they met for a few years. They speedily grew in number, badly needing a larger building, so G. W. moved it for them to the corner of Fourth and Elm Streets, where they built a large building and where it stands today (now Fourth & Elm Church of Christ).
In 1935, Bertha Altizer died and in 1949, G. W. Altizer died. Both were buried in Sweetwater Cemetery.
Their homeplace in Sweetwater is still occupied and enjoyed by part of their family who love Sweetwater and are helping it grow.
