H. Bentley (1910) Antonio S. Buzzi, a member of the Sedgwick county bar, was born in Arkansas City, Kansas, in the year 1876, and is the son of Antonio and Adeladia Buzzi. His parents, originally from Switzerland, came from Algiers, Africa, to the United States in 1864, and settled at Meriden, Conn., from whence they moved to St. Charles, Mo., but later returned to their former home in Connecticut. In 1871 they moved to Chicago, coming to Arkansas City, Kan., in 1872, among the early settlers of that community. Our subject received the common and high school education at Arkansas City, after which he spent six years in the state university at Lawrence, Kan., graduating from the law school in 1902, at which time he was admitted to the bar. After traveling two years through the Western and Central states, in 1904 he settled in Wichita and opened an office at 401 East Douglas avenue, for the practice of his profession. In 1906 Mr. Buzzi was elected city attorney of the city of Wichita, and in 1909 appointed to the same office by the commission, and is at the present time serving his second term. Mr. Buzzi is somewhat active in fraternal organizations, being a member of the Masonic order, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and several other secret organizations.
