His name was John A Abramson. Very little is known about him except that he had a brother in Jerusalem and relatives (not Jewish) in Enterprise, Kansas were he came about age 15. But no reason was given for him coming there. From 1897 to 1900 there is evidence of his interest in Baha'i, but no information has been found about him after that date when he moved to Los Angeles.<br />- Duane L.
