Louis Banker |
 | | The Banker family started from Wisconsin with the colony for the purpose of settling in Russell County, but on account of discouraging reports, abandoned the journey while in Iowa and it was several years later that Louis Banker came on to Kansas, arriving at Russell December 9, 1876. |
 | | The Banker home is one of the most attractive in Russell, located on Sixth and Maple streets, a modern residence standing in the midst of a quarter of a block of ground surrounded by noble trees. |
 | | Banker had four children: Frances A., born May 18, 1891, graduated from the University of Kansas with the degree A. in 1913, and is now the wife of James M. Baker, of Eldorado, Kansas. |
