WADE H. FOWLER.
Wade H. Fowler, registrar of the United States land office at Douglas, has made his home in this section of the state for about nineteen years and is widely and favorably known throughout Converse county. He is numbered among the native sons of South Carolina. He was born on the 28th of September, 1876, his parents being Elijah and Edda (Corbin) Fowler. The father is still living, but the mother has passed away. In the public schools of his native state Wade H. Fowler began his education and after mastering the branches taught in the elementary grades continued his studies in the Cullowhee Normal & Industrial School at Cullowhee, North Carolina. He was afterward with his father upon the home farm until he attained his majority and during that period assisted in all branches of the farm work, early becoming familiar with the most effective methods of tilling the soil and gathering the crops. On reaching man’s estate he removed to Texas, where he remained for six months, and in 1899 he arrived in Wyoming, with Douglas as his destination. He here began work on the range and was identified with the ranching interests of Converse county until appointed to the position of registrar of the United States land office at Douglas in 1913. He has since served in this capacity and his course has given general satisfaction not only to the government but to the various patrons of the office. On the 10th of April, 1906, Mr. Fowler was united in marriage to Miss Maude Kimbrough, of Madisonville, Tennessee, and to them have been born five sons, namely; Kimbrough; Corbin; Carey and Douglas, who are twins; and Fred K. Politically Mr. Fowler is a democrat and he keeps in touch with the leading questions and issues of the day, so that his vote is the expression of a firm belief in the principles which he endorses. He belongs to the Woodmen of the World and his religious faith is that of the Baptist church. He is a member of the Commercial Club and is interested in all those forces which work for the upbuilding and development of the community with which he has become so closely associated. He has never had occasion to regret his determination to come to the west, for here he has found good opportunities, and, moreover, he is bearing his part in promoting the development of the state.
