Frederick D. Gardner
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Frederick Dozier Gardner (November 6, 1869 – December 18, 1933) was an American manufacturer from St. Louis, Missouri who was Governor of Missouri from 1917 to 1921.
He was born in Kentucky, but rose to prominence in St. Louis. The only political office he ever sought was a single term as governor, and he won in the election of 1916. However, he did later attend national conventions of the Democratic Party. He died in St. Louis, and is buried in the Bellefontaine Cemetery there.
He was also a very respected Freemason belonging to the historic Tuscan Lodge #360 Masonic Temple
