Laramie Boomerang-John T.M. Kingsford, 83, who died Sunday, was present in the
young and vigorous days of the western country.
John T.M. Kingsford, aged
83, died early Sunday morning of a heart attack at the family home, 2641 Kiesel
avenue.
Mr. Kingsford was born in St. Margarets, England, on January 8, 1852,
a son of Henry John and Jane Moore Kingsford. He came to America in the early
‘60’s, living first in Wyoming, Ill., and years later moving to Laramie, Wyo.
There he was married to Estella Rogers. They moved to Rawlins, Wyo., in 1890 and
afterwards moved to Granger. In 1906 they came to Ogden, where Mr. Kingsford was
employed by the Union Pacific freight station as assistant cashier. In 1922 he
was retired on a pension, but in 1923 he took a position as custodian of the
safe deposit boxes at the Ogden State bank and worked there until the closing of
the bank in 1931.
In an interview a few years ago, Mr. Kingsford told some of
his experiences:
“As I came west in the early 1870’s to Laramie, Wyo., I was
impressed with the conditions similar to those we have seen in recent
years---men wearing parts of their army uniforms, for the Civil war was just
past.
“Western Iowa and all of Nebraska was a wilderness except for a little
strip of settlements along the railroads. Most of the railroad stations were
signified by only two buildings, one marked ‘post office’ and the other ‘land
office’.
“We saw great herds of buffalo and other animals on the plains.
“Wyoming was a wild place in those days, with plenty of wild white men and
Indians and animals. There were lots of deer, bear, elk and antelope.
“The
towns were wide open, with saloons and gambling halls operating full blast, and
many a time there was a man hanging on a telegraph pole before breakfast.
Shootings were common.
WORKED WITH EDITOR
“In 1881, I went to work
setting type on the famous Laramie Boomerang and was well acquainted with Bill
Nye, editor, who became famous as a humorist. Another man living in Ogden,
Harlan Marsh, retired railroad man, of 2780 Van Buren avenue, was employed as a
printer on the Boomerang, which won national recognition. But at that time we
did not consider Bill Nye was such a wonderful humorist. It is the old story of
a ‘prophet’ is not without honor save in his own country.”
Mr. Kingsford was
a member of the Jehovah’s Witness church.
Mr. Kingsford was a member of the
International Bible Students association.
He is survived by the widow, two
sons, J. Moore Kingsford of San Francisco; Arthur D. Kingsford of Ogden; two
daughters, Mrs. Paul Bailer, Chicago, and Mrs. John J. McHugh of San Mateo,
Cal.; seven grandchildren and two sisters, who live in England.
