ROBERTS, JR. BY A VOTE OF THE 1980 TOWN MEETING. George B. Roberts, Jr. was raised in Gilmanton and educated here in New Hampshire. A graduate of Laconia High School, George attended the University of New Hampshire where he received his Bachelor of Science degree and his Master's in Public Administration.

Always an active member of his community, George is a member of the First Congregational Society of Gilmanton; a member and past president of the Gilmanton Historical Society; and a member of the Gilmanton Iron Works Fire Department. But it is as a public servant that George is best known to the citizens of Gilmanton. First elected to the New Hampshire House in 1967, George spent fourteen years representing the town in the State House. In addition to membership on the House Appropriation and Executive Department Administration Committee, George is the only member of the Belknap County Delegation who was ever elected to serve three consecutive terms as County Chairman. Rising through the ranks, George became House Majority Leader in 1971 and held that position until his election as Speaker of the House in 1975. During his six years as Speaker, George accomplished a great deal for his town and for his state.
