Archibald G Millepaugh and the Pullman land claim
Archibald G Millepaugh of Gunley & Millepaugh and heirs of David Millspaugh face a protracted dispute over five twelfths of a Pullman area parcel. Previous owners McEwen acquired rights via quitclaims from Millspaugh heirs, with the Pullman Land Association purchasing the property. Complications include misinterpreted wills, missing deeds from Frances Wheeler, and claims of partial ownership. The case hinges on residency and probate timing, with the land valued around fifty thousand dollars when purchased and now valued in the millions after drainage and development. The matter is set for court review, as both sides prepare to argue proportionate interests in the quarter section.
