Herb Budd

Herbert Goldwin Budd was born at Lindsay, Ontario in 1891. He received his name because of his red hair that was more "golden" than red.

He moved to St. Thomas, North Dakota, with his parents who farmed there for a short time, later moving to Glasston, North Dakota where Herb grew up. He received his education in a two-roomed school in Glasston. He took an active part in school sports, football being the game of the day, at that time.

He enjoyed playing the mouth organ, then, and on into his adult years. Quite often, he was called on to relieve some other musician who played violin, accordion or whatever, at the country dances. No big orchestras in those days.

After school he worked for a time in McCabe's elevator. (McCabe Bros. branched out to establish elevators in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. There was a McCabe elevator in Richard at one time. It was taken over by Saskatchewan Wheat Pool and is now slated to be moved to the Western Development Museum in North Battleford.)

When quite a young man, Herb began farming on his own in Bowesmont, North Dakota. Later, as most of his family had moved west to Saskatchewan, he to decided to come west in 1910. He took out a homestead, NW 34-35-11 W3 in what was known as the Lakeview School District. Wanganui was his post office.

He worked along with his brother, Albert, while proving up on his homestead rights. Like so many other early settlers he experienced set-backs. One day, while on a trip to Fielding the nearest trading center, a severe thunderstorm occurred. Lightning struck the barn, burning it and the team of horses inside. Each fall he travelled to Feilding, 30 miles away, with a team and bundle wagon to work on Tommy Thompson's threshing outfit, to earn cash for winter supplies.

In 1913 he married Anges Melvin, second daughter of Sandy Melvin, of the Springbank School district. The following year they moved onto the Brevik land, at Keatley. From there, they moved to the Hammersly farm north of Speers. Later they took over the Speers Hotel for a time. Later they purchased the hotel in Hanley, moving there in about 1924.

A family of four was born to them while they were in the Speers district. Grace, Ruth, a little girl who died in infancy and son Kenneth. The children began their education in Speers, finishing secondary school in Hanley.

Grace, Mrs. Jack Malcom, whose husband is retired, lives in Watson. They have two daughters, Sheila, Mrs. Don Torguson, of Dundurn and Gay, Mrs. Klapporth, of Edmonton.

Ruth passed away suddenly in the late 60's. She was living in Calgary.

Ken served in the armed forces in World War II. He and his wife live in Nelson, B.C. Ken is employed in the post office out there. His son Ken is on staff at the University of British Columbia.

Herb served as a cook in the Military Camp at Dundurn, in support of the "Home-front" effort. Following his discharge, he moved to Saskatoon where he worked as desk clerk at the Windsor Hotel. In 1980, due to ill health, he moved to Nelson, B.C., to live with his son Kenneth. He passed away Feb. 24, 1981. He was predeceased by his wife, Agnes and two daughters.
