    CROUSE, GEORGE W., bank president, and president of the firm of Aultman, Miller & Co., manufacturers of machines for reaping and mowing, at Akron, Summit County, Ohio, was born at Tallmadge, in the same county, November 23d, 1832.  ...  The firm of C. Aultman & Co., having determined to build a branch at Akron, of their manufactory, they offered the financial management of it to Mr. Crouse, and his connection with this business began about the 20th of August, 1863. Cooperating with J. R. Buchtel, he superintended the erection of the buildings while attending wholly to the financial management of this establishment, known for one year as C. Aultman & Co's branch house; when, in the summer of 1865, it was reorganized as a stock company under the firm name of Aultman, Miller & Co., and of which as a stockholder, Mr. Crouse was elected secretary and treasurer, which position he held until January 1st, 1883, when he was elected president of the company, his duties being, in brief, to manage its finances and dispose of its goods. The first year of its existence the company manufactured twenty-nine hundred machines.
