Ritzville Journal Times June 28, 1956 Sue Gardner and gapwork90 ---------- JOHN TIMM, the son of Louis and Susan (Herrick) Timm, the first settlers in Paha, is a native of Lesuer county, Minnesota, born January 5, 1877. His father was a native of Germany and his mother of Ohio. The parents settled in Minnesota in an early day, and later removed to Washington, where also they were early pioneers. Besides the subject of our sketch, they raised five children, Delbert, Myrtle, Amelia, Mary and Celia. John Timm attended the common schools of Paha, where the principal portion of his life has been spent, three months each year until arriving at the age of fourteen years, when he started working for wages. On account of the newness of the country his educational advantages were decidedly limited, but he managed by close application and home study to acquire a fair common school education. When he began working he made his father's home his headquarters when not employed, until early in life he began riding the range of a cow-boy. Among his first exploits in this capacity was assisting in the driving of a herd of seven hundred head of cattle from Walla Walla to Lake Chelan. He continued working in the saddle until 1897, when he took his present homestead onehalf mile from Paha, where he has since lived and tilled the soil. Here he has a quarter-section of land all under cultivation, and improved in the most modern style. In March, 1893, Mr. Timm was married to Clara Westover, a native of Minnesota. Her father died during her infancy and her mother is now living in Spokane. Mrs. Westover has five children living, Eunice, Annie, Filo, Lou and Clara. John Timm is a stanch Republican in politics, and takes an active interest in the affairs of his party. Mr. and Mrs. Timm have one son, an infant not yet named.
