FRANK A. SAVAGE

    Frank A. Savage, who lives about three miles north of
Chewelah, where he does farming and stock raising, was born in
Princeton, Illinois, on June 30, 1871, the son of John and Henriett
(McNeely) Savage, natives of Illinois and Pennsylvania, respectively.
They lived in Illinois and Pennsylvania, then in Nebraska and in
1901 came to Stevens county, Washington, where the mother still
resides.  The father died in 1896, having been a veteran of the Civil
War.  They were the parents of nine children:  William P., Charles M.,
deceased, who served as an officer in the army of the King of Belgium;
John H., Lucy, deceased; Minnie Rawson, Lillie M. Miller, Hattie A.
Knowlton, Frank A., and Lottie J. Lee.  Frank A. was well educated
and when a came to a sufficient age, took up the work of the educator
himself.  He taught for several terms in Nebraska and made a good
record.  He continued his exertions for himself in Nebraska until
1901 in which year he came to Washington and bought a half section
of land where he now resides.  In addition to general farming and
raising stock he does logging and has one million feet on his own
estate.
    In 1893, Mr. Savage married  Miss Mary B. McIntyre, a native
of Keithsburg, Illinois, the date of her birth being January 29, 1868.
Her parents, Samuel and Mahalia (David) McIntyre, were natives of
Ohio and Illinois, respectively, and dwelt near Peoria, Illinois for
many years.  Then they moved to Kansas where the mother died.  In 1901,
the father died in Nebraska.  Mrs. Savage has the following brothers
and sisters:  William J., Isaac, Nancy E. Jenson, Lucy A., deceased,
Nina, Louisa J., Glage, Mary E., Robert B., and Jesse N.  Mrs. Savage
was a very successful school teacher before her marriage and is a
woman of good education.  To our subject and his wife, six children
have been born: Ray A., Fay A., Mildred, Warren E., Eva H., and Maud.
Mr. savage is a good substantial Republican and is frequently at the
conventions and is ever active in the campaigns.  He is a member of
the Royal Highlanders.  In addition to his occupation of farming and
stock raising, Mr. Savage does plastering, being a very successful
operator in that line.
