He never married. Allen Burditt, the father, was at the time of his death, many years ago, a partner and owner with George W. Prescott of the Dells Lumber Co. and operated one of the large sawmills on the Chippewa river in this city, which business later became the New Dells Lumber Co. the last lumber firm to go out of business in this city, whose mill was torn down during this year. Jack Burditt followed the lumber industry to the west coast after the war. He entered the employ of E. J. Murnen, who had gone west from Chippewa Falls.
