    2. Don't have any pictures, but my great grandfather, George Rader, enlisted in July 1861 at Fort Scott, KS. He was a sgt. in the commissary dept. there. After the War he is credited with being the first man to come to Carthage. [August 1865} He started a little store with the goods he hauled there from Ft. Scott. George was the first postmaster of Carthage and later on the mayor. The Powers Museum in Carthage is a great source for history in that area. The curator is Michele Hansford. Good luck, Amanda.
