Reflections: George Frew, Cardington jeweler for 50 years Courtesy photo George Frew, right, in his Holsman Buggy driving Cardington’s streets. The passenger is unknown. He was a familiar sight in the Cardington business district for 50 years. George Frew, arriving in Cardington from Coshocton County in 1901, opened a jewelry store at 123 South Marion Street, located on the corner of South Marion and West Second streets, on Oct. 1. Mr. Frew, stricken with polio at the age of 13 months which paralyzed his left leg and upper left arm, had never walked. In 1936 he and his wife, Katharyn (Hoffmire), a 1905 Cardington High School graduate, purchased a house just a block from his business. That house on West Second Street two houses west of the Park Street intersection and a short distance to his business allowed him to operate his wheel chair without assistance except entering and leaving it.
