Kellogg Family.

Edward E. Kellogg (1866-1944) joined the gold rush to the Klondike in 1897. Failing to strike it rich after several years of mining and working as a mechanic, he moved to Fairbanks, Alaska, in the early 1900s. There he went into the mining machinery business, serving as consulting engineer in the firm Brumbaugh, Hamilton & Kellogg (predecessor of Samson Hardware). He left Alaska circa 1914 and eventually settled in southern California. (From obituary in collection and Polk's Alaska-Yukon Gazetteer and Business Directory.).

Frank E. Kellogg (1896-1979), son of Edward E. and Agnes Kellogg, was born in Everett, Washington. Soon after his birth, his father headed north with the Klondike gold rush. Frank and his mother followed four years later. Raised primarily in Dawson, Yukon, and Fairbanks, Alaska, Frank left Alaska in the 1910s to complete his high school education in California. He went on to attend Washington State College, but his schooling was interrupted by World War I, in which he saw service overseas in the infantry. In 1920-21 he, along with his father and two other companions, traveled to the Anadyr region of Siberia to prospect for gold. The venture was a failure, but all returned safely. Thereafter, Frank married and settled in Ventura, California, where he made a career in the fuel industry. (From biographical information in collection.).
