Mrs. Walter Zeigler Dies in Muncie Dated Apr 27, 1922
Mrs. Edna Garrett Zeigler, wife of Walter H. Zeigler, of Muncie, died Friday evening at
the Home hospital in that city, following an operation. The deceased was forty-two years
old.
Mrs. Zeigler was born in Randolph county, but has resided in Muncie for several years
where she was a successful school teacher. She is survived by the husband, two sons,
Harry, and Robert; two daughters, Helen and Mary, two sisters, Mrs. Charles Botkin, of
Farmland, and Mrs. J. D. Barger, of Ridgeville, and one brother, Arthur T. Garrett, of
Detroit, Michigan.
The Zeigler family are former Winchester residents, where Mr. Zeigler was in business a
number of years. The deceased was a graduate of the Winchester schools and also taught
school here.
Funeral services were held at the Muncie home Monday morning, after which the remains,
accompanied by relatives and friends, were brought to this city and interment was made in
Fountain Park cemetery, short graveside services being held here.
So I looked through my Fountain Park Cemetery records I have for Ziegler...
