Peakes in Kansas City and St. Louis Mo
Hi I found my gg grandfather Wallace W Peake who worked as a Clerk for Peakes Grocer ( Kansas City Mo.) in 89-90. There were 3 other Peakes at this esablishment James,( may have been Wallaces brother)Walter and William . Walter came to St. Louis as a hat salesman, I know Wallace also sold Hats in St. Louis but can't find any record of him coming to St. Louis to do so. Since my g grandfathers brother was born in 1894 I believe it had to be around that time.
There are several businesses mentioned in association with this family
1.Peakes Grocery and Co
2.W.L. Peake and Co.
3.Hingston, Peake and Co.
4.Scott Jones Hat Co. who Walter soldhats for in St. Louis
any information on these businasses or this family will be appriciated
