Another early Irish settler who had much to do with the development of the town of Hale was David Maloney, who moved there in 1866 and took up a homestead on Section 28, Township 33, Range 8 West. He raised a family of seven children, all of whom were a credit to his name, five girls and two boys. Of the girls, two,
1. Mrs. Catharine Bucholz and
2. Nellie, who died at the age of four years, are laid to rest in the Hale cemetery.
3. Mary Rorabeck is living at Ryegate, Montana;
4. Maggie Harrington in Liberty, Canada;
5. Mrs. Esther Elsom at Britton, South Dakota;
6. James, the oldest son, is living on the old homestead and cultivating as many acres as any farmer in Trempealeau County, while the youngest son,
7. David, lives at Ladysmith and is the County Judge of Rusk County.

David Maloney and his wife are both death and buried in the Hale cemetery. Mr. Maloney, although deprived of the opportunities of an early education, was a great reader and became a man of wide information and very set in his convictions.
