ALONZO B. ULLERY.

	Alonzo B. Ullery, attorney at law of Denver, was born in 
Montgomery county, New York, near Fort Plain. December 17, 1854, .a son 
of Henry B. and Elizabeth (Schramm) Ullery, both of whom were natives 
of the Empire state, where they spent their entire lives. In early 
manhood the father took up the occupation of farming and thus provided 
for the support of the members of his household. He died in the year 
1883, having for five years survived his wife, who passed away in 1878. 
In their family were four children: Alonzo B.; Mrs. Nancy K. Pollard, 
living in Asotin, Washington; Mrs. Mary E. Failing, a resident of 
Ottawa, Illinois; and Jacob G., whose home is in Brattleboro, Vermont.

	After mastering the branches of learning taught in the public 
schools of his native town Alonzo B. Ullery attended the Fort Plain 
Seminary, pursuing a teacher's course. He decided, however, not to give 
his attention to the profession of teaching and became connected with 
the Fort Plain Spring & Axle Works. While thus employed he studied law 
in the evenings, while later he attended the Albany Law School, from 
which he was graduated on the 25th of May, 1880. On the 1st of October 
of that year he arrived in Denver, where he entered upon the practice 
of his profession, and through the intervening years he has made for 
himself a position in the front ranks of the leading attorneys of this 
city. He has been connected with much important litigation and he 
displays marked ability in handling the cases entrusted to his care, 
while his devotion to his clients' interests has become proverbial.

	On the 5th of June, 1892, Mr. Ullery was united in marriage to 
Mrs. Emma Conrad, of Denver, the widow of John W. Conrad. They have had 
no children of their own, but reared a niece and a nephew of Mrs. 
Ullery whose mother died during their infancy and to whom Mr. and Mrs. 
Ullery have been as own parents, giving them every advantage which they 
would have extended to their own children. They are as follows: Hector 
F. Johnson, who was born and educated in Denver, was a gun pointer on 
the United States Ship California of the United States Navy and put in 
four years in that service. He is now a resident of Denver. He has 
three sons, William, Charles and Hector, Jr. The adopted daughter is 
Mrs. Darline E. Koskoff, who was educated in Denver and is a musician 
of superior ability. By her marriage she has become the mother of a 
son, Grant Lynn Koskoft.

	Mr. and Mrs. Ullery attend the Baptist church, of which the 
latter is a member, and fraternally the former has for a quarter of a 
century been connected with the Knights of Pythias. He has concentrated 
his efforts and attention chiefly upon his law practice, and in a 
profession where advancement depends entirely upon individual merit he 
has made steady progress.
