For about a decade Albert Choules has been a resident of Driggs and occupies a prominent place in business circle as the manager of the Arnold-Vaughn Company.
He was born in England, December 29, 1877, and is a son of George and Mary (Pierce) Choules, who were also natives of that country, whence they came to the
new world in 1882. They established their home at Provo, Utah, where the father engaged in the shoemaking business, which he followed throughout his entire life
in England and in utah. As the years passed he extended his activities to include the retailing of shoes and he remained a factor in the business circles
of Provo until his life's labors were ended in death on the 18th of December, 1899. The mother passed away May 31, 1901. George Choules was ever a loyal
member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and held various offices in the church. He was also a musician of considerable local repute.
Albert Choules, pursuing his early education in the common schools, afterward continued his studies in the Brigham Young University at Provo. He later went upon the road, selling goods for Taylor Brothers, and subsequently engaged in clerking in a men's furnishing goods store. In 1903 he filled a mission to England for the church, serving two years there, after which he returned to the
new world in 1905. At that date he entered the field of insurance as representative of the Mutual Life of New York, with which he was connected for six years. In 1910 he removed to Driggs, Teton county, and established a real
estate and insurance agency and also a theatre business, conducting these lines until 1915, when he entered the employ of the firm of Blodgett & Stone, general
merchants. When the business was sold to Arnold & Vaughn, Mr. Choules also purchased stock in the company. On the 29th of October, 1919, Mr. Vaughn withdrew from the business and Mr. Choules was made manager. He is still a
stockholder and one of the directors of the business, which is conducted under the style of the Arnold-Vaughn Company.
On the 9th of May, 1917, Mr. Choules was united in marriage to Miss Rula Wilson and to them was born a daughter, Lois, on the 23rd of February, 1918. Mr. Choules, aside from filling the mission previously referred to, has been an
officer in the church, serving as second counselor to Don C. Driggs, as president of the Teton stake and formerly for six years as superintendent of the Men's Mutual Improvement Association. His political support is given to the rupublican party and he is a valued member of the Commercial Club of Driggs, of which he has served for two years as president. He is in hearty sympathy with
the purposes of that organization for the development of its civic standards. In a word he is a very alert and progressive man whose life typifies the opportunities of the west and the kind of men who have been the upbuilders of its greatness.
