Mr. Redmond came to Kansas in November, 1867 and located in Burlington and has lived there since. He was born in Greene County, N. Y., in 1831, and lived in his native State about four years, and removed with his parents to Seneca County, Ohio, and lived there till 1850, and from 1853 to 1856 lived in Indiana and removed to Illinois in 1858, and lived there till December, 1860, and returned to Ohio and remained there till 1861, and enlisted in Company B, Forty-ninth Volunteer Infantry and was promoted to First Lieutenant, and resigned on account of disability in August, 1863, and returned to Ohio and received an appointment as Colonel of a regiment; but on account of disability did not enter the service again. After his return he took a course of lectures at the University of Michigan and located in La Grange County, Ind., in the practice of law, and remained there till he came to Kansas in 1867. James Redmond was educated for the priesthood, but never took holy orders and at the call for volunteers at the outbreak of the Civil war enlisted in the Forty-ninth Ohio regiment. He was promoted to colonel for gallantry in action and served until 1863, when he was severely wounded and relieved from active duty. He never fully recovered from his injury and did not again enter the service. Mr. Redmond decided to devote his life to law, was admitted to the bar at La Grange, Ind., and practiced there for a short time. In 1867, he came to Kansas and opened a law office in Burlington, where he engaged in the practice of his profession until his death in 1904. During his life he was a prominent lawyer, took an active part in politics, served as chairman of the Republican county committee for a number of years, was held in high esteem by members of the Burlington bar, and the members of the Masonic fraternity of which he was a member. *** James Redmond Head United States Census, 1880 birth: 1835 New York, United States residence: 1880 Burlington, Coffey, Kansas, United States spouse: Sarah J.
