Christopher Columbus EVERETT was known as Uncle Lum. He was never married. Lum followed several of his brothers to Minnesota. Two half-brothers Redden Hiram EVERETT and Mahlon Rittenhouse EVERETT and full brother Frank EVERETT were Le Sueur County residents. Lum lived in Cleveland Township, Le Sueur County, Minnesota just across the road from to his full brother Benjamin Franklin Pierce EVERETT. Lum had a small cabin in a wooded area that was owned by his brother Frank EVERETT. In 1923, after the death of his brother Frank, Lum decided to move back to Ohio. Before he left his little house in Le Sueur County, Minnesota he burned it to the ground. He took his dog Puppay back to Ohio with him. Lum had taught that dog to "sing" when he spoke to it. The Grand nephews and Grand neices were very amused by Uncle Lum's special dog.
Lum lived an additional 21 years back in Ohio. He had returned to the place of his birth.
No monument exists to mark his final resting place. Lum never owned any property and lived by doing odd-jobs for others.
