Notes - There is a baby picture dated Christmas 1900 saying his name is George Bismark Ott. The 1920 federal census shows his middle initial is still "B" (for Bismark), while by the 1930 census it has been changed to "V".
George was in WW1. Private Battery C, C4 Trench Mortar Battalion.
George was once mayor of Azusa. George V. Ott was President of the School Board. During WWII he was also on the draft board and rations board. He was the Station Manager, Standard Stations Inc., 148 W. Foothill, Azusa, Ca. The house they lived was built by the Judge (Olive's first marriage) and was used to be a marriage parlor (that is why it had two front doors). That property was once part of what was called Rancho Rustico. Part of a Spanish land grant. They had a special type of avocado tree growing in the yard that people would come from all over California to get a seed for their own gardens.
There is a story about a cap and ball, gold inlaid gun and sword that was kept in a box and on special occasions was brought out and polished. This was not actually part of the Ott side but rather handed down from the MacCallum side, being the accoutrements of office from the Honorable Peter MacCallum of St. Peters, Prince Edwards Island (actually handed down to Larry Ott, following the line of succession but kept in a place of honor by George Ott until Larry was old enough). Peter MacCallum would have been Larry's 2nd Great Grandfather on his mothers’ side.
