Leo Lindauer arrived in Leadville sometime during the 1870’s. His time in Leadville was limited, but he did form relationships there that lasted the duration of his lifetime. He attended the organizational meeting of the Rocky Mountain Lodge 322 of B’nai B’rith on November 9, 1879, where he was selected as a member. [1] In 1880, Leo worked as a clerk for the firm of J.B. Billings & Co. and found residence at 108 Harrison Avenue. [2] Sometime during this period he met Millie Frey and the couple were married on March 15, 1881, in Leadville. [3]
Before then end of 1881 the couple moved to Gunnison City where Leo was elected treasurer of the town council on March 24, 1882. [4] A few weeks later in April of 1882, they welcomed their first child, Cecil, into the world. [5] The couple maintained their Leadville connections far beyond their departure and hosted the wedding of Betty Rosenthal and Simon Weisberger at their home in Gunnison City of July 8, 1884. [6] Leo died in Denver of unknown causes in 1902 at the age of 50. [7] His youngest son, Maurice, and his wife visited Leadville from their home in Chicago from 1906 [8] until the 1920s. [9]
