and settled in Salt Lake City. During this period Moench attracted the attention of John R. Park, President of the University of Deseret. From 1868 to 1871, Moench taught in LDS church schools and was an instructor in German, penmanship and drawing at the university. In 1872, after educational service in Brigham City, Moench moved to Ogden and was associated with education for the next thirty years as a principal and superintendent of schools in Weber County. Moench became the first Principal of Weber Academy in the Fall of 1888 and opened classes in January 1889. He served in that capacity from 1889-1892 and 1894-1902. As principal, Moench not only organized classes, found meeting space, and hired faculty and staff, but instilled a respect for education in the minds of students and the general community as well. His successor, David O. McKay remarked: The skill of the able teacher is shown in the imparting of instruction, putting in the awakening mind of the student a desire for learning and in directing him how to obtain it. Professor Moench possessed this rare gift of the true teacher. After completing his second stint as principal, Moench continued to be active in supporting Weber as a member of the Board of Trustees until his death in 1916. Additionally, he was involved in starting LDS church schools in various communities including Manassas, Colorado; Snowflake, Arizona; and Hinckley, Utah, and was active in many capacities in the LDS church serving as a stake clerk, assistant stake Sunday school superintendent, and a missionary to Switzerland from 1884 to 1888. Moench was the husband of four plural wives. They were Ruthinda Hill Moench, Frances Wood Moench, Annie Ballantyne Moench and Delecta Ballan-tyne Moench. At the time of his death in Ogden on April 25, 1916 thirteen of his eighteen children from these marriages were still living. Emil B. Isgreen 1892-1893 Emil B. Isgreen was born on April 27, 1865 in Tooele the son of Anders J. and Anna Stromberg Isgreen. Isgreen graduated from Brigham Young Academy in May 1887 and taught at that school until his appointment as Principal of Weber Academy in 1892. Isgreen was hired by the LDS Church Board of Education on July 25, 1892 to replace Principal Louis F. Moench, who was retiring because of ill health. Though he served only one year at Webers helm, the Ogden Standard called Isgreen an able manager who oversaw a school growing in popularity, both in Ogden and throughout the territory, and whose high standards prepared its students to enter any first class college. After leaving his position at Weber, Isgreen attended the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor from 1893-1894 and then obtained a medicaldegree from Rush Medical College in Chicago in 1897. Isgreen began practicing medicine in Salt Lake City in 1900 and was active in the medical profession until his retirement in 1935. During those years he was a member of the Utah Medical Association. From 1900 to 1907, Isgreen served as physician for the Utah Fuel Company, and was also a physician for the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad in Carbon County. In that capacity, Isgreen was the physician in charge at the time of the Scofielcl Mine disaster of 1902 in which 200 miners were killed. Isgreen was an active member of the LDS church. He married Minnie Peterson on February 24, 1909 in Logan, Utah, and they were the parents of two sons and three daughters. Isgreen died in Salt Lake City on November 26, 1945.
