----------------------------------
SAMUEL T. MOOMAW resides about three miles northwest from Colville. He is a farmer and stock raiser and devotes himself to these callings with an industry that has given him a good holding. He was born in Pittsfield, Illinois on August 31, 1858, the son of Adam and Elmira (Applegate) Moomaw, natives of Ohio and Indiana, respectively. Our subject had the following brothers and sisters: James, deceased, Mildy, Lizzie, deceased, Charles, deceased, and Jennie Toll. In 1863 the family crossed the plains to California with ox teams, settling in Rich Gulch after which they moved to Chico, Butte County, where they lived for seventeen years. There Samuel received his education in the common schools then went to herding cattle at the age of ten. He rode the range for three years then sheared sheep until 1880 when he came to Washington and took a railroad contract in Lincoln county and later followed the same business in Stevens County. We also find Mr. Moomaw doing some extensive grading contracts in Spokane on the Northern Pacific and at various places on the Great Northern. He also freighted for the Great Northern from Ellensburg to the Cascade Mountains. The year 1893 marks the date of his return to Stevens County and here he has given himself entirely to farming and stock raising since. In 1881 Mr. Moomaw married Miss Ellen Butler, daughter of James and Katherine Butler, natives of Ireland and California, respectively. They spent twenty-seven years of their married life in the gold fields of California and in 1879 came to Dayton, Washington; later they removed to Edwall where the father died and where the mother still resides. To Mr. and Mrs. Moomaw nine children have been born: May, Charles, Katie, Sarah, Johanna, Leo, Hazel, Truman, and Myrtle. Mr. Moomaw is a Democrat and always manifests interest in the local and state questions. He and his wife are members of the Catholic Church.
