LOYAL A. STRIEBY.—Prominent among the wide-awake and progressive ranchers of
Imperial County is Loyal A. Strieby. He has done much in advancing the material
prosperity of this county and has the good-will and esteem of all who know him.
Mr. Strieby came to the Valley in 1908. He was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania,
July 9, 1866, a son of Samuel and Eliza (Johnston) Strieby. His grandfather
fought in the war of 1812. Mr. Strieby's parents are both deceased and buried in
Ontario, California. Loyal A. acquired his education in the public schools of
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, after which he attended the Greensboro Academy. He came
to Imperial Valley in 1908. Upon his arrival here he purchased his present ranch
of 160 acres, which is now in a high state of cultivation. Mr. Strieby is
largely identified with the stock business and owns about 200 head of fine
stock. His place is well adapted for stock and general ranching and under Mr.
Strieby's management the ranch has been made to prosper materially. He was
married at Cucamonga, California, April 4, 1904, to Miss Grace Fifield, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey Fifield, who reside at Cucamonga, California. Four
children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Strieby: Margaret and Samuel were born
in Cucamonga, and William and Florence were born on the ranch. Mr. Strieby is in
every respect a self-made man. He started out in life without influential
friends or funds and through his own energy and business foresight he has made a
handsome competency.
