Date: Monday, April 15, 2002 10:03 PM
John Emmert arrived in Fort Scott sometime after 1863 with his wife, Louisa
Burkhard, and at least two sons, John H. and Charles Eldridge, from Hagerstown,
MD. We think he was in the lumber business.
John H. was employed in railroading in Kansas City from about 1885. Charles was
in Kansas City briefly at that time, then operated sawmills across the Yellow
Pine forest, returning to Kansas City in 1918.
Charles was my grandfather, died in 1946, leaving me his watch, inscribed "made
for D. Praeger, Fort Scott, Kansas".
I am looking for any record of these Emmerts during their life in Fort
Scott.
