Obit from unnamed, undated paper:
"Doyle Manhart, Ex-Hoosier Educator, Dies"
"Terre Haute, Ind. (Spl.) -- Funeral services for C Doyle Manhart, 60 years old,
former school superintendent and basketball official, will be held at 1:30 pm (CST)
Wednesday in Gillis Memory Chapel, Terre Haute."
"Mr Manhart, who died Sunday at Anna, Ill., taught in the Petersburg school system
from 1921 until he retired as superintendent there in 1954. He then moved to Anna to
operate a motel."
"Mr Manhart was a member of the Indiana High School Athletic Association Council for
10 years and was on the IHSAA Board of Control two years. He also was a basketball referee
throughout Southern Indiana."
"A native of Terre Haute, he was graduated from Indiana State Teachers College in
1921, and received a master's degree from Columbia University in 1929."
"Survivors include the widow, Mrs Clara Manhart; two daughter, Mrs Kathryn Kelly of
Anna, and Mrs Patricia Culley of Chicago, and a son, Joseph Manhart, a student at the
Indiana University Medical School in Indianapolis."
end of obit.
I did find the family in the 1930 Petersburg, Pike, IN census. Joseph hadn't been
born yet.
This isn't my family: I don't know anything else about them.
