People named George Walser

Founder of the Town of Liberal, MO (1880), Civil War officer, published author/poet, lawyer, philanthropist. After the Civil War, he went to Barton County, where he was quickly recognized as one of the best lawyers in southwest Missouri. He was elected prosecuting attorney there, and became a member of the 25th assembly. He purchased 2,000 acres of land outside of Lamar, MO, and as an openly admitted atheist, funded and founded the Town of Liberal; a town created as a home for infidels, a place that once advertised itself as a town without a 'church, saloon, God or hell'. Beginning in 1880, hundreds of people moved there, but, by 1910, when he died, the experiment in creating a town for non-believers had failed. Today, Liberal has seven churches, a tavern on its outskirts, and history unlike any other town in America.

George Washington Walser Born 08 February 1818 in Wilkes County, GA; died 23 June 1902 in Montague County, TX. He was the son of David Walser and Elizabeth Darden.

He was a member of the 3rd Battalion, Mississippi Infantry (State Troops), Company E. This company was present at the Battle of Vicksburg in July 1863. The Walser pamphlet states that he was taken prisoner, but I have not located any records that confirm that, nor any that show his release.

She was the daughter of Lemuel Darden and Rebecca Weaver, so is George's first cousin. After Mary Ann’s death, George married Martha Caroline Johnson Canty, a widow. She died shortly after the census was taken in 1870. They had one son, George. A few years later, George married Sarah Balack or Blalock in Amite County, Mississippi. They had several children.
