Mr. Sedgwick promised the citizens of Sedgwick, Ark., that when they built a schoolhouse he would give them a bell. The building was not constructed until after his death but the matter was mentioned in his will and when the schoolhouse was completed in 1907 a fine bell of bronze, said to have cost $350, was sent. All of Mr. Sedgwick's five children were by his first wife. Lee was president of the railroad tie company as late as 1908. Frank was connected with railroads running out of Kansas City. No trace of any of the members of the family of George Washington Sedgwick could be found in Kansas City in 1945, in spite of the wholesale construction of railroad ties for the new railroads of that section for two or three decades.
