Mobley, C. C. (Clio Cline), 1881-1985

C. C. (Clio Cline) Mobley was born in Greensberg, Indiana on February 9, 1888 to Lyman Mobley and

Nancy Doggett. Mobley married Bertha Pearl Dickey in 1903, and the new family moved soon after to

Riverside, California. Mobley's first daughter, Mary Miriam, was born in California in 1908. In 1911

Mobley moved his wife and family to the land in Las Vegas, Nevada that contained the Old Las Vegas

Mormon Fort and first swimming pool in Las Vegas. The family operated a dairy farm on the property,

taking over O. R. Sanford's business. The Las Vegas Age newspaper recognized the Mobley dairy farm for its sanitary conditions in 1915. The family remained in Las Vegas until approximately 1917, when they moved back to Indiana. Mobley resided in Indiana with his family until his death on January 22, 1985.
