John Elmer Worden (1861-1925) came to Alaska from New York via Oregon and was a resident of Wrangell from 1898-1925. He married Nina Silve Turner in Portland in 1895 and they had 3 children. Worden served as Wrangell's postmaster from 1900 until 1917 when his health began to fail. He was Wrangell Town Clerk from 1905-1925. Additionally, he was a professional photographer and active in community affairs.
