.
!Wellington graduated from Medical School in 1880; practiced medicine in
Stromburg, Polk County, Nebraska for awhile; invested in real estate; mined for
silver in Colorado for awhile; then went back to medical practice in Stromsbug
Nebraska. House calls necessitated his getting out in the cold weather which
proved unhealthful, so he took job as Postmaster. After a time even that
proved too strenuous for him. He moved to San Juan, Hidalgo Co., Texas because
his doctor thought warmer climate and lower altitude might prove beneficial.
Daughter of William Dunn (of Aurora, Kane, Illinois) and Elizabeth Tryon or Elizabeth Elvira Pratt..
She had three children.
Son of William Slaughter and Susan B. Kull.
