Selma C. Moyer

Selma C. Moyer was born in Morgan Co. Mo. on Aug. 169 1882, in March, 1884, the family moved to Moniteau Co. only 2½ miles from where she was born, but close to the church, which was the main reason for making the change. She attended the West View School and also the Parocial German school. In Mar., 1901, she came with the family to Deer Creek, where she lived on the farm until 1915 when with her mother she came to D. C. to make her home. While living on the farm, she attended Bethel College for about one semester. On Jan. 3 or 4f 1919, she was united in marriage with Rudolf Mueller of Halstead, Kansas. They lived for several years on his brother's farm about 6 miles N.W. of Halstead. On Dec. 6, 1919, a daughter, Edna Ruth, was born. On Dec. 19, 1929, a son, Waldo was born. In Nov., 1925, twin sons, Edwin & Erwin, were born to them, but they only lived a day or two. A few years later they bought a farm about 3 or 4 miles N.W. of Halstead, where the family still reside. In the summer of 1932 she was stricken with a very rare and incurable gland disease, called Hodgson's disease, to which she succumbed on May 19, 1933. She bore her trials bravely, although she longed to stay with her family and see her children grown at least, she passed away ready to meet her Savior whom she had served many years. She was baptized in 1901. Edna is now a junior and Waldo a sophomore in H. S. Rudolf Mueller was born in Germany on Aug. 4, 1874, and was educated and grew to young manhood in that country.
