I am looking for information regarding Rollin E. Williams that was a sign painter & an artist in Wichita in the 1890's. I have some pen and ink drawings of his in an old ledger book and some are historical happenings. There was a Standard Oil Fire at night on April 4. I don't have the year. Also, I have a drawing of the Convention Hall fire,no date. I also have a picture of a big warehouse fire on Aug.17th, loss $40,000. The warehouse says United Door and Sash CO. There is a map that he has drawn with his house on University Ave. It was close to the Friend's University and just off Seneca St.

If you have any information regarding these items, please email me. Thanks
