R. H. F. VARIEL of Quincy was born November 22, 1849, at New Harmony, Posey
county, Indiana. His father, J. H. Variel, was a native of East Minor, then
Cumberland county, Maine, and was born August 7, 1816; married Miss Mary A.
Casey of Indiana in 1847; and in 1852 crossed the plains with his family, and
settled at Camptonville, Yuba county, in 1853, and is now living in Quincy, in
this county. After acquiring a common-school education at the mining town in
which he was reared, R. H. F. Variel began to teach school in September, 1868,
which he followed in Yuba and Plumas counties until 1873, when he was elected
district attorney in the latter county; to which position he has been three
times re-elected, and is now serving his fourth term. Since 1873 his undivided
attention has been given to the study of the law. In June, 1876, he was admitted
to practice in the district court, and in May, 1879, to the supreme court. He
was married in 1876 to Miss Carrie L. Vogel of Transit, Erie county, New York,
by whom he has had one daughter.
