He was a member of the Harvard College Class of 1880 (and thus a classmate of Theodore Roosevelt's). He dropped out of college after two years and returned home to Brunswick in Medina County. His communications to the class secretary mention a large number of published and unpublished writings, as well as his involvement in a variety of political controversies. I would be grateful for any and all information on Anton Leister and his family. Anton himself never married, but his correspondence mentions a brother who may have left descendants. I am interested in oral accounts of the family, as well as information on his unpublished writings.
