Moule's Foothill Glass Inc.

Bill and Margaret Moule founded Moule Paint & Glass in 1949. Bill originally came to California in the 30s and worked as a miner. There he met and married Margaret Payne. They moved from Grass Valley to the Baguio area in the Philippines, along with their first two children. When the Philippines fell to Japan in WWII, the Moules hid in the countryside but were eventually captured and lived in a war prison camp until the end of the war. In addition, he had contracted polio and was unable to resume mining upon returning to California. Instead, he started a glass and painting business. Bill and Margaret decided to open the glass and paint store in 1949 with amazing support from their community. Thus was born Moule Paint & Glass.
