Alexandar Majors Historic House in Kansas City.

 I've leaned about important role             Alexander Majors                                         played I early Kansas City.                                  He employed so many...                                  What does one man do when                               he as so many daughters?                                    He was a creative thinker.         spend://www.saralexandermajors.org/Alex
