Biographical history
George Hague was born on January 13, 1825, in Rotherham, Yorkshire, England.
He was a bank agent and author. He immigrated to Canada in 1840. He worked at the Bank of Toronto. In the 1880s, he became a General Manager of the Merchants Bank of Canada in Montreal. The bank came close to failing during the depression of the 1870s but was saved by Hague’s competent management. He also served as a Chairman of the Civil Service Commission of Canada in Ottawa in the 1890s. He wrote several books on bank management and commerce.
In 1852, he married Sarah Cousins (1820–1900) and in 1902, he remarried Mary Frances Mitcheson (1874–1919). He died on August 26, 1915, in Montreal, Quebec
