FAREWELL FOR MRS. A. ULLOM
Neighbors and Friends Spend Evening at West Side Home-Family to Move to Oklahoma.


A party of neighbors and friends called Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Alfred Ullom of South . . .Street, and spent a most enjoyable evening. The affair was in the nature of a farewell, since Mrs. Ullom and family leave next Monday for Postal, Okla. Mr. Ullom and son have been there since spring and like the country very much. They are engaged in farming, and as there are several families from this city and vicinity located not far distant, the Ullom's feel it will be quite a little colony "from home".
Mrs. Ullom was showered with dishes by her friends, as a reminder of Streator neighbors, and fruit was served. The evening was devoted to "visiting," . . . pleasant . . . take . . .

Alford E. ULLOM Obituary
28 June 1928
----------------
AGED HEIR TO VAST FORTUNE IS DEAD
----------------
Four weeks after learning that he was the direct heir to ten million dollars, Alfred E. Ullom of the Camp Keltner neighborhood died without ever having seen the tremendous fortune that had come to him. Mr. Ullom was found dead in the morning when called to breakfast by his family at his home some 15 miles southeast of Elkhart. Death was evidently due to heart trouble and he died while he slept..
The fortune concerning which Mr. Ullom received definite information less than a month ago will in all probability descend to his children, although his death may involve the vast sum of money in still further litigation. The inheritance was to come to Mr. Ullom from a great uncle who was a partner of John Jacob Astor in the fur business more than a century ago, and the money has been tied up in his estate for that length of time. A will made by the great uncle was recently found among the effects of Astor, the fur king, and immediate effort was made to execute the will..
By terms of the will the money was to remain in escrow until after the death of the last of the second generation of heirs and it is believed that Mr. Ullom is the final one to go so that the principal may be distributed soon.
Alfred Ullom was born May 12, 1847, in Virginia, and died at the age of 81 years, two months and 14 days. He had lived in Texas county for more than 20 years, having come from Illinois. He is survived by his wife and several children, two of which, Lawrence and Frank live on the home place.
Funeral services will be held at the home tomorrow at 10 in the morning under the direction of Rev. D. P. Smith, pastor of the Church of God. Ralph Peacock, undertaker, will take the body to Guymon from where it will be taken to Coffeyville for interment.
My great-grandfather, Alfred Ullom had two wives -- Samantha Pitman who died in childbirth and Tacy Emmaline Berry. Tacy came to care for Alfred's children, then cooked for him in his inn in Coffeyville, KS. They married two weeks before the Dalton Raid on the banks the first weekend of October, 1892. I obtained their marriage certificate from the county courthouse if you want to check how I obtained that information. I also believe you will find news of it in the paper as well. I have both Alfred's and Tacy's obituaries as well -- they were also in the paper.
