ATCHISON COUNTY, KANSAS OBITUARIES
ALDERSON, L. A. Atchison Globe, April 28, 1881 Rev. L. A. Alderson, one of the
oldest settlers of Atchison, and one of its most universally respected and esteemed citizens, died last night at
11:30, in the sixty ninth year of his age, of congestion of the lungs, after an illness of almost a year. Mr. Alderson
was born in Greenbrier, West Virginia, on May 5, 1812, and was educated at Athens, Ohio, where he graduated in
1832. He has been a member of the Baptist church for almost half a century, and preached the first sermon of that
faith ever heard in Atchison, in 1858, in the law office of ex-senator Pomeroy. In April of that year he arrived
in Atchison on the steamer Hesperian , of which A. B. Symns, the wholesale groceryman, was head clerk. The date
of the funeral cannot yet be announced, as it is not known when his children living in Virginia will arrive. The
