Historic Coffeyville estate sale by Minuteman Auctions and Homestead Estate Sales

Minuteman Auction Service, Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and Homestead Estate Sales, Independence, Kansas, are honored to have been commissioned by the family of Pratt and Lue Barndollar of Coffeyville to offer the following exceptional collections for sale in a three day estate sale, the first of three such sales.

Lue-a retired instructor and administrator at Coffeyville Community College, former chairman of CCC's Board of Trustees, long-term president of the Coffeyville Historical Society, and beloved neighbor and community advocate-passed away in 2022. Her husband of 61 years, Pratt Barndollar, noted Coffeyville rancher and banker, passed away in 2015. The house at 416 West 6th Street in Coffeyville was indeed home to Lue as that was her childhood home; then after her marriage, she and Pratt purchased 416 from her parents where they then raised their family. As you'll read in the "bio" of their collections, the family name is noted in communities both in Kansas and Oklahoma. We are pleased to offer this outstanding assemblage of antiques featuring Native American and Western collectibles, military items and exceptional antique furniture and furnishings to the public.

A word (or two) about the items for sale . . .

The exceptional antiques and collectibles in this sale are from a family with an exceptional historical connection in the Coffeyville area and the north-eastern part of Indian Territory, current day Oklahoma. Many of these artifacts have been passed down through at least three generations with many having been in storage for at least 60 years.

Within the Barndollar family tree is Laronia Inones Pratt, known as Nonie, granddaughter of Charles Journeycake, the last principal chief of the Delaware people. She married James Judson Barndollar in Bartlesville, I.T. in 1888. He served in the 183rd Pennsylvania Infantry during the Civil War before moving to Coffeyville seven years after the war. Mr. Barndollar ran a general store in Coffeyville in the central plaza where the 1892 Dalton raid took place.

After Nonie's father's death, her mother married Jake Bartles, the founder of Bartlesville, Indian Territory/Oklahoma. Nonie was later widowed in 1904. She and her only surviving child, a son, Pratt, embarked on a world tour that included Europe and the Orient. Many of the antiques in this sale date to that trip.

Pratt later started a large cattle ranch in New Mexico in the 1920s through 1933. Many of the Native American artifacts date from that era with others dating back to Nonie's mother's era.

Pratt Junior, as an only child of an only child inherited all of the family's historical treasures. With the passing of both Pratt Jr. and his wife, Lue Edna (Diver) Barndollar, the items are now offered to the public.
