The Plant Doctor
George walked 8 miles
(13 kilometers) to get to the
town of Neosho. That was
where the closest black school
was located. By the time he
got there, it was night. George
found a barn and fell asleep.
Meeting Mariah
The next day, he met a
midwife named Mariah Walker.
She and her husband owned
the barn where young George
had slept. She told him that he
could stay in their house. In
return, George helped her with
her work.

Name Change
When George lived with the Carvers, he
was known as âCarverâs George.â That was
because the Carvers owned him. When
George left the farm, he changed his name
to show that no one owned him. His new
name was George Carver. George picked his
middle name, Washington, years later.
