Excerpt from a posting by Dave Minder in 2001-2002 on boards.ancestry.com:

According to the following 1958 article from the Drayton newspaper [The Advocate], Almon was also a preacher.

"Recalls Days of Drayton Circuit
Miss Mary Healy of 215 E. Olive St. Corona, California, great grand daughter of Methodist circuit rider Rev. Ezra Healy stationed at Drayton a century ago, visited here last week on her first trip to Canada. Miss Healy told The Advocate that her father was born here in 1860, son of Rev. Almon Healy: he was the youngest of eight. The Healy family left here for North Dakota and founded the town of Drayton there, later going on to Ontario, California, where Miss Healy was born. Her great grandfather's saddlebags may be seen in the Methodist Museum in Los Angeles. Her father was Francis Asbury Healy; he was 19 when moving to North Dakota; he died just four years ago in California aged 94. Miss Healy's uncle Ezra was Dean of Theology at the University of California."
