Waugh is filling the office of county supervisor and rendering creditable service to his fellow citizens in that connection. He makes his home on section 30, Butler township, where he has a well developed farm, having brought his fields to a high state of cultivation in accordance with the progressive methods of the present day. Richard H. Waugh was bom in Henry county, Missouri, September 11, 1870, his parents being John W. and Julia A. (Hamilton) Waugh, who were natives of Montgomery county, Indiana. The father died in Henry county, Missouri, in 1910, at the age of seventy years, and the mother passed away at the age of thirty-six, when her son Richard was a lad of thirteen years. Both the father and mother were reared in the Hoosier state but removed to Missouri at the close of the Civil war and their remaining days were spent there upon a farm. The father engaged in raising and feeding stock and was very successful in his undertakings. As he prospered he added to his holdings until he was the owner of fourteen hundred acres. In ante-bellum days he was a staunch advocate of abolition principles, and when the republican party was formed to prevent the further extension of slavery he joined its ranks and continued one of its stalwart supporters. His religious faith was that of the Methodist Episcopal church and earnest Christian belief guided him in all of the relations of life. To his father and mother were born nine children (these are Richard and his siblings): 1. W. B., who for many years was connected with mining interests at Joplin, Missouri, but is now residing in California 2. Mattie, the wife of Ed Darr, of Blairstown, Missouri 3. James H., a wealthy farmer of Henry county, Missouri 4. Ed R., who has large farming interests in the same county 5. Richard H. 6. Mary, the wife of Dr. L. L. Smith, of XJrich, Missouri 7. Mrs. Jennie Crist, deceased 8. Walter S., who resides upon the old homestead in Missouri 9. Minnie, the wife of James Adair, of Chilhowee, Missouri Richard H. Waugh was reared in his native county, acquiring a common-school education and working upon the home farm until twenty-three years of age. On the 2nd of October, 1893, he arrived in Butler county, having driven from the old home in a covered wagon in fourteen days. He was married here on the 8th of October of that year to Adelaide Witt, who was born in Clarksville, March 28, 1875. When four years of age she went to North Dakota, with her parents, R. E. and Sarah C. (Burton) Witt. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Richard H. Waugh have been born three children: 1. Mark, nineteen years of age 2. Elizabeth, thirteen 3. Harvey, ten Mr. Waugh has resided in or near Clarksville since coming to Iowa and has always engaged in farming. He now owns one hundred and thirty acres of land on section 30, Butler township, a mile and a half south of the town. He carries on general farming and stock-raising, and his place is well improved with all the modern equipments and accessories of the model farm of the twentieth century. In politics he has been a lifelong republican and for many years served as a trustee of Butler township, while at the present writing he is acceptably filling the office of county supervisor. He belongs to the Masonic fraternity and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and both he and his wife hold membership in the Eastern Star. They attend and support the Christian church of Clarksville, and they are widely and favorably known socially, the hospitality of the best homes of their section of the county being cordially extended.
