"CHARLOTTE T. KIRKPATRICK – In the autumn of 1870, the subject of this personal notice came into Montgomery county, Kansas, with her husband, the late Hardin W. Kirkpatrick, well remembered by the early settlers of West Cherry township. The two settled on a claim-right, bought of one Edward Burt, for which they paid the sum of $900.00, and remained there twelve years, going thence to their new farm, in section 3, township 31, range 16, which was entered, as a claim, by Mr. McGovern. Here the family had its permanent home and here Mr. Kirkpatrick died, February 10, 1903.

Mrs. Kirkpatrick was born in Scott county, Illinois, January 13, 1845, and was a resident of that county till her departure for Kansas. Her parents were Edward and Delilah (Baxter) Elliott, born in Pennsylvania and Kentucky, respectively. Edward Elliott was a son of ____ Elliott, who removed from the "Keystone State" to Kentucky and subsequently became a pioneer of Scott county, Illinois. Edward, Thomas and Harriet Hamilton were the three children of the original Elliott, herein mentioned, and by his marriage with Delilah Baxter, Edward Elliott reared eight children, namely: William H., Mrs. Julia A. Cline, Mrs. Mary Hamilton, Mrs. Caroline Dawson, John S., Mrs. Sarah E. Kelly, Mrs. Amanda E. Fletcher and Mrs. Charlotte Kirkpatrick.

Hardin W. Kirkpatrick was born in Winchester, Scott county, Illinois, and was a son of Thomas and Jane R. (Summers) Kirkpatrick, natives of Monroe county, Virginia, and of Todd county, Kentucky, respectively. The elder Kirkpatricks had four children, namely: Hardin W., Samantha H., Mrs. Alice A. McEvens and Mrs. Emmorilles Edmondson. Mr. and Mrs. Kirkpatrick became the parents of five children, viz: Harry E., of Montgomery county, has three sons: Roy, Ivan C. and Burt R.; Chas. S., of Latah, Washington, has a daughter, Mildred. Those deceased are: Edward, Vera and an infant.

In his young manhood, Hardin W. Kirkpatrick learned cabinetmaking, but when about twenty years of age, he abandoned the trade and became a teacher in the country schools, for some time. At the opening of the Civil war, he enlisted, as a private, in Company "F," One Hundred and Twenty-ninth Illinois Volunteer Infantry. After the war, he returned to his native place, with a minnie ball in his arm, and followed farming till he left the east to become identified, in the same manner, with the west.

As a citizen of Montgomery county, he practiced industry and brought up his family to useful and upright lives. He was a prominent factor in local politics and was called to serve in public office by the voters of his township. He held the office of treasurer one term and was a number of years trustee and justice of the peace. He affiliated with the allied forces, as against the dominant political party of the county, and contributed his mite toward the overthrow of Republicanism."
