Buckner’s Fortune Restored by Hidden Transfer Tale
The New York Sun recounts General Simon Bolivar Buckner the present Governor of Kentucky, who lost and regained a vast fortune. His first wife’s wealth, $500000, largely grew through his management. He deeded it to his brother to shield it from the Civil War. A cavalry officer named Kingsbury died and later a memorandum resurfaced proving Buckner’s claim. The property now yields about $75,000 annually from Chicago office buildings.
