Note:
Captain George Bobo Dean, present sheriff of Spartanburg county was born October 20th, 1839. He was educated in the common schools of his neighbourhood and attended for a time Erskine College before the outbreak of the civil war. He suffered from a severe attack of pneumonia, and before he had sufficiently recovered he enlisted as a private in the Spartanburg Rifles and went to Sullivan's Island in April, 1861. After six weeks' service he returned home to recruit his health. In a few months afterwards his brother, Captain Alvin H. Dean, raising a company of cavalry, he enlisted in the same as a private. The company volunteered at first for State service only, and upon the reorganization for Confederate service he was elected first lieutenant.
In November, 1862, his brother resigning on account of ill health, he was made captain of the company, which position he held until close of the war. This company was known as Company E, 2nd S.C. Cavalry, commanded respectively by Colonels M.C. Butler and T.J. Lipscomb. The writer served the three last years of the war as a member of this company, and can testify to the faithful and arduous service rendered his country by Captain Dean and the men belonging to his command. In the great battle of Gettysburg, July, '63, Captain Dean had his horse shot from under him, and at the battle of Brandy Station, August 1st of the same year, he was seriously wounded.
After the war Captain Dean resumed farming on the old homestead place of his grandfather, near Cashville, S.C. This he continued until 1874, when he removed to the Price (brick house) place on Tyger River. In 1881 he purchased land and made improvements near Spartanburg. Captain Dean while engaged in farming had the reputation of being among the foremost and most progressive in his county.
In 1890 he was elected to the State Legislature, receiving over four thousand votes, the highest total vote cast. In 1892 he was elected sheriff of Spartanburg county, and re-elected to the same position in 1896, which position he still holds, and it is needless to say that he has proven himself to be an able and efficient officer.
