George C. Reiswig, Sr. was born on January 25, 1868 in Neusatz Parish, Russia. He was the son of Conrad Johann and Katherina Maria (Hoff) Reiswig. He died in Lodi, California on January 25, 1952.
George immigrated to the United States with his parents, grand parents, and his brothers and sisters. They arrived in the Port of New York on the ship Suevia on May 24, 1876. From New York they traveled to Wittenberg Township, Hutchinson County, South Dakota where his parents homesteaded on the banks of the James River.
George married Elizabeth Bentz in about 1885 in Hutchinson County, South Dakota. She was the daughter of George Michael Bentz and Dorthea Hoffmann and had been born in Russia in about 1868. She had immigrated to the United States in about 1885 with her father George, her stepmother, Maria Ann (Niess) Wall Bentz, a full sister Margarette, and 3 half sisters (Margaretha, Katharina, and Anna Bentz), and 2 half brothers (Fred & Jacob Bentz).
On May 27, 1886 a son, named Joseph, was born. Elizabeth either died in childbirth or died within a few weeks of Joseph's birth.
In about 1888 George married Elizabeth Wall, daughter of August Wilhelm Wall, and Maria Anna (Niess) Wall, who was born in Hoffnungstal, Cherson, South Russia on February 18, 1870. They had ten children. The first five were born in Hutchinson County South Dakota: Ben, George Jr., Sarah, August, and Jacob. The last five were born in Lincoln Township, Sheridan County, North Dakota: Emanuel, Isaac, Lillie, Reinhold, and Frieda.
In 1898 George, his brother-in-law Fred Bentz, and his brother Conrad C. Reiswig had traveled to Lincoln Township, Hutchinson County, North Dakota to scout out a new area for the Reiswig's to settle. Most of the Reiswig's in South Dakota joined them in Lincoln Township, North Dakota by 1900.
After his children were raised, George and Elizabeth moved from North Dakota to Lodi, California. Elizabeth (Wall) Reiswig died in Lodi on April 23, 1946.
After Elizabeth's death, George married Katherine Ralkey.
