 George S. Junkins, a former Mayor of Lawrence, was born in North Berwick, York, Me. May 10, 1846. A son of Daniel and Louisa (Weymouth) Junkins, he is of the fifth generation in America descended from his immigrant ancestor, who came from Scotland an settled in old York, Me. From York the family subsequently moved to Berwick, Me. Jotham Junkins, the grandfather of George S., born in 1791, was a farmer in North Berwick. He married a Miss Ingraham, of Portland, Me., who bore him one son and three daughters.
 Daniel Junkins, born in North Berwick in 1821, who as a meat dealer in South Berwick, died in his native town in 1893. His first wife, Louisa, also a native of North Berwick, died in 1855, aged thirty-seven. She was the mother of five children, namely : Mary Ellen, who died at the age of seventeen; Oscar W., who became a sea captain, and whose residence is in Lawrence; Daniel E., now a farmer of Buxton, Me. ; George S., the subject of this sketch ; and Sarah A., who became the wife of Charles H. Lindsay, and died without issue in 1895.

The maiden name of Daniel Junkins’s second wife, who came from Smithfield, was Olive Merrill. A most estimable lady, she has been a kind mother to the orphaned children. At present she is living in Somersworth, N.H. Her children by her late husband are : Louise, the wife of Alvin H. Stevens, of Dover, N.H. ; Mary, the wife of Frank Malory, of Somersworth, N.H. ; and Frank, a resident of Lebanon, Me.
 George S. Junkins acquired his early education in the common schools of South Berwick and Lebanon. At the age of sixteen he wen to work in a flannel factory in North Berwick, where he was employed for six years. He then opened a meat market in Lawrence in company with A. I. Mellen. Since that time the firm has established an extensive and prosperous business. Mr. Junkins has ranked prominently among the business menn of Lawrence for over thirty years. He is active and popular among the Lawrence Republicans. In 1890 he was in the Common Council, in 1891 and 1893 he was member of the Board of Aldermen, and since 1893 he has been serving on the Water Board, of which at present he is the President. Elected Mayor in 1896 an re-elected in 1897, he proved a progressive and able chief magistrate.
 Mr. Junkins was married April 2, 1870, to Josie M. McDuffee, of this city, a daughter of Charles and Sarah (Hopkinson) McDuffee. Some time ago, Mr. McDuffee, who was a carpenter and builder, fell from a building, and died one week after from the injuries he then received, aged fifty-nine years. His wife had died at the age of twenty-nine, leaving Josie M., her only child. Mr. and Mrs. Junkins have three children : Bertha L., an accomplished young lady, who, having completed the classical course in Boston University, graduated therefrom June 1, 1898 ; Helen M., who is a teacher in Dr. Sargent’s School of Physical Culture in Cambridge, Mass. ; and Marion W., now sixteen years of age, who graduated in June, 1898, from the Lawrence High School.

From The Kneeland Miscellany, Compiled by Bertha J. and Frank E. Kneeland, 1914-1917. Page 206.
George Selby and Mary Josephine (McDuffee) Junkins [were] born 10, 1846 and February 12, 1848, at South Berwick, Maine, and Rochester, New Hampshire, respectively. They were married at Lawrence, Mass., April 12, 1870 (4/2/70) and, with the exception of the first year of their married life during which Mr. Junkins was in charge of a woolen factory at North Berwick, Me., lived continuously in that city, of which he was twice Mayor, up to the time of his death on November 12, 1900. Some three years after his death and after her daughters Helen and Marian had graduated from the Boston University School of Medecine and Radcliffe College respectively in 1903 (1903), Mrs. Junkins removed with her daughter Helen to Lowell, Mass, where they resided upt to the time of the latter’s marriage to Edward J. Beach at her sister Marian’s home on the grounds of Leland Stanford, Jr. University at Palo Alto, California, in April 1909.
 Having previously sold her home on Tower Hill, Lawrence, (110 Bodwell street), Mrs. Junkins thereafter became a considerable traveller, making frequent visits to her daughters in Brooklyn, N.Y., Dubuque, Iowa, and Leland Stanford, Jr., University, California, taking occasion to see such natural wonders as The Yellowstone, The Yosemite, and The Grand Canyon of Arizona en route, a tour of Alaska in 1911, and one of Europe extending through Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Holland and Belgium, in 1912. She last visited her eldest daughter at Brooklyn on her return from Europe in September, 1912, at which time she took the pictures of her grand-daughter Helen seated in her baby chairs and bath-tub on the roof of the apartment house at 128 Sterling Place, Brooklyn, with the tower of the Christian Science Church accross the way in the background, which appear in Helen’s baby album. Leaving for Dubuque on this occasion, Mrs. Junkins made the trip up the Hudson on one of the Day Line steamers and opined that, except for the castles, the real Rhine which she had traversed a few weeks previously had nothing on its American prototype! Shortly after her youngest daughter Marian’s third child (Carlton Skinner) was born at the hospital in Palo Alto, California, in April, 1913, Mrs. Junkins herself was forced to become a patient in the same hospital where she underwent two operations for the stomach trouble from which she had long been a sufferer! She rallied sufficiently to make the trip to Dubuque, Iowa, in the early Summer of 1913, but suffered a relapse shortly after her arrival and died in the hospital to which she had been removed in Dubuque on August 6, 1913. Both she and her husband sleep in the lot which he had provided in the Extension to Bellevue Cemetery at Lawrence, Mass. Prior to his election to the Mayoralty, Mr. Junkins had been in the Meat and Provision business. After his second term as Mayor had expired he became associated with the Stanley Grain Company of Lawrence as its Treasurer! It is now owned and conducted by George A. Stanley, whose father was the original founder of the business!
