I am trying to find out some information on my Grandfather that I never knew. I had heard that he was killed on the railway (The Kansas City, Kaw Valley & Western Railway) between Bonner and Edwardsville. Is there any information anywhere that would have a list of accidents around Bonner Springs. I think it was after 1935. The only other information I have is that he lived around Linwood, Kansas in 1919. That is when my mother was born. There also was a Frank Davis and a Maude Davis listed in the 1920 census living in Bonner Springs. He was listed as a brakeman - electric line.
I did find a list of accidents in the University of Kansas Libraries, Kenneth Spencer Research Library from 1921-1926 but nothing after that.
Any help would be appreciated.
