K & K Insurance

Nord Krauskopf was a roofing contractor and local race car driver competing at South Anthony Speedway and Fort Wayne Speedway. There was no insurance for drivers, so he would collect $1 from racers for a benevolent fund in case someone got hurt. After a few crashes, the fund was quickly depleted. Krauskopf had an idea to start selling insurance to race tracks, and in 1952 he contracted through Lloyd's of London and started touring race tracks. In May 2017 The Indiana Racing Memorial Association erected a plaque honoring 65 years in business. Copied from his story in Racing history organization honors K&K's track impact, Company founder was pioneer in insurance and team ownership by Blake Sebring published May 10, 2017 in The News-Sentinel newspaperand Local firm's legacy ensured 1st company to insure racers, tracks gets historical marker by Frank Gray published May 11, 2017 in The Journal Gazette newspaper.

Kekionga Ball Grounds 1869-1871

Page 468, FORT WAYNE'S FIRST BASEBALL GROUNDS. Contrary to the general impression, the Kekionga baseball team was not the first to be organized in Fort Wayne. In 1862 — six years before the organization of the Kekiongas by Charles F. Taylor and R. J. Fisher — the Summit City club was formed, with Charles S. Bracken- ridge as president. (See Chapter XXXVIII.) At that time Allen Hamilton donated the use of his vacant grounds, now a crowded business section west of Calhoun street and south of Lewis street. in The pictorial history of Fort Wayne, Indiana : a review of two centuries of occupation of the region about the head of the Maumee River by Griswold, B. J. (Bert Joseph), 1873-1927Taylor, Samuel R., Mrs Publication date 1917 on Archive.org.

Page 474, A tract of ground north of Camp Allen, in Nebraska, between the canal and West Main street, was converted into a baseball park for the lively contests which occurred in 1870 and succeeding years. The citizens raised a fund to erect a grandstand, the ornamental central section of which was christened "The Grand Duchess." A monument marking the location of the first professional baseball league game between the Fort Wayne Kekiongas and the Cleveland Forest Citys on May 4, 1871 in Camp Allen Park in Fort Wayne was erected in May 2017. Fort Wayne won 2-0.

Dedication of monument marking first pro baseball game May 20, 2017 WANE 15 News on YouTube.

Baseball’s first professional league game, 150 years ago posted Jul 6, 2022 This story originally aired: May. 4, 2021 FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) - by Daniel Beals on YouTube.
May 4 is a special day in baseball, especially here in 21Country. A monument marks a historic site at Camp Allen Park, alongside the St. Marys River. “You could argue that Fort Wayne was part of the first professional sports league in America, which is kind of cool,” sports historian Blake Sebring told us. Sebring has literally written the book on sports history in Fort Wayne. “The Kekiongas were a club team in Fort Wayne,” he said, “they had a little bit of a reputation in the midwest as being a good team.” In 1871, they were invited to join the National Association of Professional Baseball Players. A city in Ohio was slated to make history that day. But Mother Nature had other plans.

Kings - Kings A & I

King Trunk and Leather Works, Inc. was founded in 1919 by Morris King. In later years the company was run by brothers Harry H. and Manuel (Manny) K. and then James R. King, Manuel's son. In 1926 King Trunk and Leather Works purchased the Allerding & Ittenbach Co. that had been founded in 1902 and was known as the A & I store. King's later combined the two stores names becoming Kings A & I Leather and Camera Shop. Kings first store was located in the 1100 block of S. Calhoun. They moved to 916 S. Calhoun in 1940. In 1952 they hired local architect A. M. Strauss to remodel 814 S. Calhoun to house both stores. King's A & I remained at this location until closing in 1984. They opened a store at Glenbrook Mall in 1970 and remained there, occupying several locations in the mall, until closing in 1994.. Copied from the Kings A & I Collection with photos courtesy of James R. King on the Allen County Community Album at the ACPL. Randy Harter, Fort Wayne historian and authorworked with James King, the third generation owner of Kings A & I, to scan and catalog 58 images of the family’s downtown fine leather and luggage store(s), the last location of which was on Calhoun (now the site of the Dash-In), along with his stores in Glenbrook Mall.

Nancy Mullins Swain says: This house was built by my father's cousins, Jake and Wayne Knee. One of the builders lived in the house with his elderly mother until 1961. Legend says that a man built the house for his paralyzed wife and spent no expense to make sure her wheelchair could move freely throughout the house. When the woman died, the man walked away from the house before it could be finished. Over the years the house was destroyed by the elements and the ruins are supposedly haunted by the ghost of his wife.

Koehler House

Corner of Webster and West Rudisill Streets in Street View photo from Google maps

A July 31, 2022 post byHistoric 07 District - Fort Wayne on Facebook.

The home at the corner of Webster and Rudisill is one of the oldest homes on the entire south end of town. Built in the 1880s, it was initially the home of Paul and Mary Koehler, who were married in 1881. Paul operated a brickyard on the property, perhaps one of a handful in Fort Wayne at the time. Paul created a “brickyard neighborhood” bound by Webster, Rudisill, French, and Hoagland, where residences and the brickyard itself existed. This is why if you drive down French Street, you see multiple small but old brick homes. Today’s story is about an Indiana Supreme Court case involving this brickyard.

In 1892, one of Koehler’s employees was delivering a load of bricks with a team of horses. Shortly after, Mose Read, the agent for the Fort Wayne Humane Society, ordered the employee to drive to the store of George Loesch on Barr Street. George was the secretary of the Fort Wayne Humane Society. The two men allegedly started to inspect the horses while also telling the employee that both he (and Koehler as the owner) were treating the horses inhumanely.

At the time, there was a broad legal authority within the State of Indiana for society leaders to prevent animal cruelty. Specifically, the law stated that any society leader “may kill or cause to be killed any animal found neglected or abandoned and which, in the opinion of three reputable citizens, is injured or diseased past recovery, or, by age, has become useless.” The agent and the secretary sought the opinions of three reputable citizens, who all agreed the horses were useless. Upon deciding on this, the agent and secretary shot the horses in front of the employee. Koehler, only finding out later, filed a lawsuit.

The lawsuit went all the way up to the Indiana Supreme Court. At issue in the case was whether the law was even valid, considering it does not require notice or due process when it results in the destruction of one’s property. Ultimately, the Supreme Court held the law invalid and sided with Koehler because this state-initiated property deprivation was without due process.

Its been a rough week to say the least. This weekend we also said our goodbyes to the man we all known as Dad, Grandpa and Great-Grandpa, Melvin Kuehnert.

On the other hand, he had an amazing week! He drove his buggy down to the farm for his last stroll, checked on the cows, inspected how we were coming with spring farm machinery maintenance and viewed the construction progress of Kuehnert Milk House. He had the biggest smile on his face, so very proud of his family, their hard work and the legacy he was leaving behind! He was surrounded by his family and friends as he said his farewells to his bride of 73 years.

Melvin was the glue that held us all together. We are all going to miss him so very much. However, his work here on earth was complete, and it was his time to meet his Lord and Savior. We are thankful and blessed for his life so well lived.
