Linda,

I found another Fryberger in my mother's notes. This was taken from the Cyclopedia of Kansas History, Vol. 2, Edited by Frank W. Blackmar - Soldier

page 711 -------------The first settler on the town site was F. M. Wilson in July 1877. The post office was moved from the ranch of William Cline, the name changed from Smithland to Soldier, and Mr. Wilson was the first postmaster. On July 10, 1883 a cyclone struck Soldier about 10 P.M. instantly laying waste to the whole town east of Main street. Some 16 or 17 buildings were destroyed and four lives lost. The people began to rebuild immediately. The town was incorporated in 1896 and an election held on May 4 of that year.------------ A.L Fryberger, Councilman
