In the sale of lots by the Townsite Company, that proved to be the inception of Kansas City, the vocation of each purchaser of lots followed his name, as: 'William Gillis, Gentleman,' 'Lott Coffman, Teacher.' 'Mr. Coffman,' Mrs. [Nellie] Harris states, 'followed J. O. Buchanan as teacher of the school near Grand and Missouri avenue. His home, at the time, was at [3rd Street] and Walnut. He later moved west of Main and built the first house on the site of the Mystery house."' Printed accounts show that Lott Coffman was a versatile person in a pioneer community, serving its needs as teacher, councilman, surveyor, lawyer and justice of the peace."
