No..Although George's handbook listed his early education; there is no mentioning at all that he chopped down a cherry tree, nor any mentioning of his father ever owning a cherry tree..He may had chopped down some small branches from an oak or pine when he was a small boy ; but it would't had been a cherry tree.
A cherry tree It is a story. He did not really cut down a tree.
