George Edward Held (July 1, 1877 — November 27, 1966) was an American farmer and politician who served on the Iowa House of Representatives from 1921 to 1929.




Background


Held was born in Hinton, Iowa, on July 1, 1877, to a German immigrant family. He attended Westmar College, then named “LeMars Normal School,” in 1897, and was among the first to graduate.
He would go on to establish his livelihood as being concerned with cattle and sheep raising—he would also become an importer of German coach horses.




Political career


Held first ran for the General Assembly's lower house in 1920 as a Republican, and was subsequently elected into the position. He was consistently reelected for the next two elections, with the streak ending in 1929.




Personal life


On March 8, 1922, Held married Agnes Ayres, and had three children with her: namely Thomas, Stanley, and Katherine.
As far as religious affiliations go, he was a member of the Methodist Church in Hinton.
He died on November 27, 1966, as a result of a "long illness" in a nursing home situated in Le Mars.
