Bio
“Funeral services for Elmer T. Gates, whose death occurred at his home on West Webster Street Wednesday afternoon shortly after 3 o’clock, will be held from the First Baptist Church Saturday morning at 10 o’clock conducted by the pastor, the Rev. W.H. Brengle. Burial will be in Edgewood. Elmer Thomas Gates was born June 30, 1872 in Danville, Ind., being a son of William C. and Amanda E. Gates. When twelve years of age, he moved with his parents to Nebraska. In 1895, the family moved to a farm near Meadville. February 23, 1896 he was united in marriage with Miss Edna J. Perkins of Halsey, Neb. To this union three children were born. A daughter, Helen Lee, died in infancy. Surviving are the widow; one son, Clifford of the home address; and a daughter, Mrs. Martha Nadine Daniel of Montgomery, Ala. Mrs. Daniel will arrive here tonight. He is also survived by two sisters, Mrs. Joseph Dum and Mrs. Thomas Fowler, both of Kansas City; and one brother, Charles Gates of Kansas City. Eighteen years ago, Mr. Gates united with the Baptist church and has been a consistent worker. He was not only active in the church, but was one of the active members of the Men’s Friendship Bible class which meets each Sunday morning in the Ritz Theatre. For eight years, Mr. Gates was in the hardware business and was also in the real estate business for several years.” The Chillicothe Constitution Tribune, October 25, 1934
