About Senator George Ellis Pugh
George Ellis Pugh (born November 28, 1822) was a Democratic senator from the state of Ohio who served one term in the United States Senate. Representing Ohio in the upper chamber, he held office from December 3, 1855, to March 3, 1861, during a period of mounting national tension in the years immediately preceding the American Civil War. His service in the Senate marked his principal role in national politics.
Pugh’s tenure as a U.S. senator from Ohio lasted for a single term, after which he left office and is regarded as a former member of Congress. While specific committee assignments, official contact details, and additional offices are not listed in the available record, his time in the Senate places him among the historical Democratic representatives of Ohio in the mid-nineteenth century.
