Louis B. Wambsgans
|
"One of the interesting characters of this region at that time was Louis
Wambsgans, one of the very earliest settlers who located near where Oconto now
stands. His house was the only stopping place for a number of years between
Plum Creek and the South Loup, and there was hardly a night
the year around but that two or three cowboys could
not be found at 'Louie's,' as he was familiarly called. He could
always furnish sport for the boys in some way, and his annual
turkey shoots during the holidays became famous throughout this
region. I have heard many a good story told under Louie's hospitable
roof."
Page 339, Lewis Wambsgans built the first livery
stable.
From - "Dawson County Pioneer" on 21 October 1882 "Louis
Wambsgans has opened a new meat market on Second Street"
From the "Plum Creek Gazette" 3/12/1884 "Plum Creek and
Custer County Stage line leaves Plum Creek at 8 o'clock A.M. on Tuesdays
and Thursday and Saturday. Fare 5 cents per mile. Packages carried.
Louis Wambsgans"
From the "Dawson County Pioneeer" of 25 February 1888 "On
Thursday morning last the dwelling house of Louis Wambsgans, near Olax,
Custer County, was totally destroyed by fire. Loss, about $1500; insurance
$700. The fire is supposed to have originated from a defective flue, and
was not discovered until it had gained such headway that it could not be
extinguished. In fact but few things could be removed from the burning
building."

Bermuda, died 21 February 1919 in Dayton, Oregon. Eliza's father was the

servants to Plum Creek and nothing!
