      From AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF KLICKITAT, YAKIMA AND KITTITAS COUNTIES WITH AN OUTLINE OF THE EARLY HISTORY OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON (Interstate Publishing Company 1904)

      Adam Wattenbarger --- who was a stockman and farmer, was a native of the state of Tennessee, whence, at an early age, he removed to Missouri. He came across the plains to California in 1862, and settled in Yolo County, buying some land. Two years later he sold out and moved to Mendocino County, where he spent two years going thence to Lake County, in which was his home for a period of fourteen years. He owned considerable property in the East and was quite well off but the war hurt him in a financial way, destroying the many improvements which he had (at great pains) on his land. Coming to Klickitat County, Washington in 1880's he lived near Bickleton until February 23, 1887, when he passed away, having reached the age of 68. He was of German descent, but his forefathers had lived in Pennsylvania for several generations. His wife, whose name was Sarah Smith was also a native of Tennessee, born in the same town that her husband was brought up in. She died February 22, 1891, having survived her husband only four years.
