Sam & Mary Theler

Mary Theler's Diary.  Weekly publication of Mary Theler's diaries starting in 1931.

Sam & Mary Theler.  Sam and Mary Theler were prominent "pioneers" in the development of Belfair ("Clifton" in those days) and the North Mason community. Their grocery store was a central meeting place for area residents and Sam's bequest of real estate to found and sustain Mary E. Theler Community Center provided the "sense of place" necessary to make the Belfair area a community.
