Solomon Timothy Metty, son of Leander


Solomon Timothy Metty born Oct. 7, 1837 Monroe Co., MI was the 5th child of Leander Metty & Marie Anne Mouton.

He left MI for KS in the early 1850’s, arriving in Pottawatomie Co. where he later married & raised his family.

Records show he married for the 1st time on July 9, 1863 to Alice C. Palmer & they had two sons.

In 1863 Sol served as Captain of Co. G in Wabaunsee Co., KS Militia.

He operated a grocery/drug store in Louisville, Pottawatomie Co., KS. He apparently practiced medicine because in 1901 he was certified as a M.D. based on 45 yr. experience. His school of practice was Alleopathic medicine.

He married again on Aug. 31, 1872 at Louisville to Margarete Johanna McKown, a milliner. They had nine children, including Pearl Marie, my grandmother.

Sol died June 30, 1913 Topeka, KS & was buried at St. Bernard’s Cemetery, Wamego, Pottawatomie Co., KS.
