Volgamore, William P., Buffalo, son of Jasper N. and Elizabeth (Harris) Volgamore, was born February 23, 1866, in Benton county, Iowa, where his parents were pioneer settlers. In 1871 the family removed to Norfolk, Neb., where Mr. Volgamore received his preliminary education in the public schools. He went to Helena, Mont., in 1883, and completed his commercial studies in a business college there, and remained in that State for ten years, becoming a foreman in a large grocery house in Helena and later engaging in contracting and other enterprises. He also became a member of Montana Lodge No. 1, I. O. O. F., with which he is still connected. In 1893 he came to Buffalo where he has since conducted with uninterrupted success a business brokerage and real estate office, which is now one of the leading enterprises of the kind in the city.
