I am researching the Hollopeter family in the U.S. I recently came across an
obituary for Rudolph Beiler (23 Nov 1889-12 Apr 1940). He married Leah
Spendler in 1911, and they were the parents of 5 daughters: Adeline, Mary,
Idella, Elva (Eva?), and Irene. At the time of Rudolph's death, Mary, Eva,
and Irene were still at home. The other 2 daughters are listed in his obit
as Mrs. Chas Hollopeter of Fort Wayne and Mrs. Elmer Aschleman of Pioneer,
Ohio.
I believe Rudolph and Leah are buried in Leo Mem. Cem. The ACGSI Eel
River/Cedar Creek Cem. book lists a Rudolph (1889-12 Apr 1940) and Leah Hibbs
BELLER [sic] on p. 207. I suspect this is the right couple.
Is anyone researching the BEILER family in Allen Co.? Do you know which of
the two remaining daughters (Adeline or Idella) married Chas. Hollopeter?
This is a Hollopeter family I didn't know about. I would love to learn more
about this line.
