The Humboldt Union, Thursday, Oct. 2, 1919
Died: Sept. 26, 1919
E. N. WERT AT REST.
_________
Pioneer Citizen and Civil War Veteran
Passed Away at His Home
In This City Friday Morning.
E. N. Wert, soldier of the Civil war and pioneer citizen of Humboldt, passed away at his late home here at 4 o’clock Friday morning, September 26. His last illness came upon him only a few days before. In the spring of 1910 he suffered a stroke of apoplexy since which time he had practically been an invalid.
Mr. Wert was born January 20, 1839, in Cincinnati, Ohio. In early childhood he removed with his parents to Montgomery county, Indiana, where he received a common school education. He also spent several terms in Wabash college in Crawfordsville, Ind. His boyhood days were spent on a farm and he afterward learned the carpenter trade which he followed for a number of years.
At the beginning of the Civil war Mr. Wert enlisted in the 10th Indiana, Company B, and after serving three months was discharged. He then joined the 63rd Indiana, remaining in its service for twelve months and was placed on detail duty in the secret service for one year. He recruited a number of men for Company B, 120th Indiana, and was with that company in the 23rd corps until the close of the war. He was mustered out of the service in November, 1865.
In September of ’67 he started for the West and reached Humboldt on October 23. After farming and working as a carpenter for a short time Mr. Wert entered the law and real estate firm of Gilbert & Suit and was admitted to the bar in 1872, selling his interest in the firm five years later. For twelve years he was engaged in the livery business here and then moved to a farm which he owned in Woodson county, near Toronto. Ten years later he returned to Humboldt and has since made his home here.
Mr. Wert was an esteemed member of the Odd Fellows lodge and of Vicksburg Post, G. A. R. He is survived by his widow. Funeral services were held at the home at 2 o’clock Sunday afternoon, September 28, religious services were conducted by the Church of Christ Scientist. Members of Humboldt Lodge No. 30, I. O. O. F., acted as pall bearers and were in charge of the services at Mount Hope where the remains were laid at rest.
William Cutler wrote the following about this gentleman:
F. N. WERT, proprietor of the Humboldt Livery, Feed and Sale Stable, was born at Cincinnati, Ohio, January 20, 1839. Six months later his parents immigrated to Montgomery County, Ind.; there he enlisted in Company B, One Hundred and Twentieth Indiana Infantry. Was mustered out June 20, 1865, after which he was employed as a carpenter in Indiana. He came to Kansas in November, 1867, and located in Allen County, and was for three years engaged in agricultural pursuits. Moving to Humboldt, he opened a real estate and law office with others, under the style of Gilbert, Suits & Wert. Three years later he sold out his interest, and was employed as a traveling salesman until October, 1880, when he engaged in his present business. He deals extensively in horses; has fine barns and good livery stock.

ELNATHAN N. WERT.
ELNATHAN N. WERT, of Humboldt, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the 20th of January, 1839, and was the third child born unto Richard D. and Amanda Wert. His father was born in Germany, March 10, 1810, and with his parents came to America in 1813, landing at Jersey City, residing there two years and subsequently removing to Cincinnati. In early life he learned the cooper’s trade, but afterward engaged in farming. In 1839 he married Miss Amanda Compton, a native of Ohio, and removed to Indiana, securing a homestead near Crawfordsville, where he made his home until his death, which occurred in 1893. His wife passed away in January, 1865. They had six sons and six daughters, all of whom reached years of maturity.
E. N. Wert spent his youth in Montgomery county, Indiana, where he attended the common schools, after which he spent two years in Wabash College of that state. When the war broke out he enlisted in 1861 for three months’ service as a member of Company B, Tenth Indiana Infantry, and participated in the battle of Rich Mountain. When his term had expired he received an honorable discharge, but re-enlisted for one year’s service in Company B, Sixty-third Indiana Infantry. He was detailed for duty in the secret service and received a lieutenant’s pay. On the 1st of September, 1863, he resigned, but soon afterward was appointed recruiting officer and recruited sixty-four men, with whom he joined Company B, One Hundred and Twentieth Indiana Infantry, being assigned to the position of corporal. Successive promotions came to him as orderly sergeant, second and first lieutenant, and he was detailed to act as General Cox’s body guard with the Third Division and Twenty-third Army Corps, thus serving until November 30, 1865, when he was discharged under general orders at David Island in New York harbor. He was ever a loyal soldier, true to the stars and stripes, but when the country no longer needed his services he gladly returned to his home and family.
Mr. Wert was married on the 22nd of January, 1860, to Elizabeth Copner, a native of Indiana. After following carpentering in the Hoosier state until the fall of 1867, he brought his family to Kansas, arriving in Humboldt on the 22nd of October. Here he secured a clerkship in the United States land office, under Colonel Goss, with whom he worked for three months. He then secured a homestead three miles north-east of Humboldt, residing thereon until December, 1869, when he returned to the city and entered into partnership with Messrs. Gilbert and Suits in the law and real estate business. This connection was maintained until 1873, when Mr. Wert sold out and became traveling salesman for the Singer Sewing Machine Company, which he represented on the road for ten years. He went into the livery business in Humboldt and traded his livery stock for a Woodson county farm which he moved to and operated some years. On selling that property he became owner of eight hundred acres in Gove county, Kansas, where he engaged in general farming and stock raising for four years. On the expiration of that period he disposed of his land, purchased property in Humboldt and has since made his home in this city.
On the 16th of August, 1869, he was called upon to mourn the loss of his wife, who died leaving three children, but William and James are now deceased. Nettie, the only surviving child is the wife of John Dornburg, of Allen county. For his second wife he chose Frances E. ScanIon, their marriage being celebrated September 19, 1878.
Mr. Wert has always been an active worker in the Republican party since attaining his majority. He was deputy sheriff for four years, filled the office of justice of the peace, and in both positions discharged his duties in very commendable manner. He is a valued member of the Odd Fellows Lodge of Humboldt, in which he has filled all the chairs. He also belongs to the Grand Army of the Republic and was a delegate to the national encampments in San Francisco and Columbus, Ohio. In his early life he twice sailed round Cape Horn as a cabin boy, the voyage, in those days of primitive navigation, consuming six months. He has visited every state and territory of the Union, gaining that experience and knowledge which only travel can bring. His has been an active, useful and honorable life and now he is enjoying a well-earned retirement from labor, occupying a pleasant home in Humboldt, where he has the warm regard of a large circle of friends.
