Edwards, Rev. Jonathan. "An Illustrated History of Spokane County, State of Washington." San Francisco: W. H. Lever, 1900. p. 506. GEORGE MUMBRUE a pioneer of 1889, is a native of Jackson county, Michigan, born in 1848. When quite young he was taken by his parents to Wisconsin, where he lived on a farm for nineteen years. The next nine years of his life were spent in Minnesota and from that state he came to Spokane county. For the first three or four years of his residence here he was not permanently located, but he finally bought a farm on Peone prairie, on which he has since lived. He has a beautiful place, commanding an excellent view of the entire prairie. Mr. Mumbrue is a very progressive, industrious farmer, and his place is well improved and well supplied with everything necessary to make rural life attractive and comfortable. He has a nice orchard containing many choice varieties of fruit trees. He was united in marriage in 1872 to Miss Julia Mc Ewen, of Waupaca, Wisconsin. * * * * Submitted to the WA.
