FREDERICK H. HEALEY.

FREDERICK H. HEALEY.
Frederick H. Healey is a progressive and enterprising business man of Encampment, where he is connected with banking interests and is also a representative cattleman of his section of the state. He was born at Cape Girardeau, Missouri, May 1, 1888, a son of Frederick H. and Josephine (Ketcham) Healey, who were natives of Maryland and of Tennessee, respectively. At the time of the Civil war the father enlisted for active military service from Maryland and after the close of hostilities he removed to Missouri, where he conducted important lumber and sawmill interests in the southern part of the state. He remained there to the time of his demise, which occurred March 12, 1888, and his widow is still living at Poplar Bluff, Missouri, at the age of fifty-nine years. They had a family of six children: Joseph M., who is captain of the transport Thomas at San Francisco; Matilda, deceased; Thomas Maurice, living at Los Angeles, California; Mrs. Ella Kitchen, whose home is at Poplar Bluff, Missouri; Mrs. Josephine Malone, also of Poplar Bluff; and Frederick H. In his youthful days Frederick H. Healey of this review was a pupil in the public schools of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, and later he attended the Holy Cross College at Worcester, Massachusetts, where he remained as a student for three years. He next resumed his studies at St. Anselm's College at Manchester, New Hampshire, where he continued for two years, and on the expiration of that period he went to Washington, D. C., where he devoted one year to the insurance business. He afterward went to Copenhagen, Denmark, where he occupied the position of private secretary to Maurice Francis Egan, who was the United States minister to that country. He remained abroad, however, for only six months, returning to the United States on account of his health. He then made his way to western Texas, where he engaged in the cattle business, and from the Lone Star state he removed to Cheyenne, Wyoming, and was employed by the Warren Live Stock Company for a year. On the expiration of that period he made his way to Big Creek and was bookkeeper for the Hunter, Casteel & Hunter Company for one year. He afterward bought a ranch at French, Wyoming, and has since been engaged in cattle raising, becoming a prominent representative of that business in western Wyoming. He afterward removed to Encampment to become cashier of the Encampment State Bank, the company purchasing the bank from Cosgriff Brothers. He is thus identified with the financial interests of his county as well, and has done much to develop the business of the bank and place it on a thoroughly substantial basis, ever recognizing the fact that the bank is most worthy of patronage that most carefully safeguards the interests of its depositors. Mr. Healey holds membership in the Roman Catholic church and his fraternal relations are with the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks. His political allegiance is given to the republican party and he served as postmaster while at French, Wyoming. While he is interested in all that pertains to the welfare and progress of the community in which he lives, he is not ambitious to hold office, but prefers to concentrate his efforts and attention upon his business affairs. He is now the owner of the Encampment State Bank and also the owner of a six hundred and forty acre ranch in Carbon county. Although a young man, he has won a position among the wealthy residents of the state, earning a well deserved fortune through the capable management of his business interests in Wyoming and his opportunities for judicious investment.
