Herbert R. Best, Boston, Massachusetts, and Omaha, Nebraska.[4][a]
Thomas R. Kimball joined the existing Boston and Omaha firm of Walker & Best in 1891. Best had moved to Omaha in 1889 or 1890 to open the office, which was first known as Walker & Best. Upon the sudden death of Best, late in 1891, the firm became Walker & Kimball, also with offices in Boston and Omaha.[3:346][4]
