BiographyWalter French was born in Branch, Michigan, to Ezekial Inman French, a produce dealer, and Martha Mattie Mitchell. In 1896, French was graduated from Hillsdale College[1] and, in 1901, the inaugeral class of the University of Washington School of Law (along with classmates Walter B. Beals and Vivian Carkeek). After graduation, French lived in Seattle and practiced law in the firm of Allen & French.[2] By 1910, he resided on Bainbridge Island, Kitsap County. In 1912, French was elected to the Kitsap County Superior Court.[3] In 1918, he ran for the Supreme Court against an incumbent, but lost. In November 1926, French, now residing in Tacoma, won election to the Supreme Court. He served three years, until his death on September 13, 1930.[4][5] On April 12, 1904, he married Bessie Westlake Carkeek (born January 16, 1879-died February 15, 1967), a cousin of his classmate Vivian Carkeek.
