The above were children of Mathias Zimpher b 25 Oct 1844 Germany and Mary Elizabeth Ledgett b 14 Apr 1849 Lincolnshire, England.
Mary E was recorded on 1870 US census at Huron, Ohio, and then disappeared.
Frank C was recorded in 1930 in Wellington, Lorain, according to an A' family tree. Eva M appeared to have passed away in 1894 at Wellington, Lorain.
Their parents passed away in 1927 Geneva, Ashtabula within 3 months of each other.
A sister, Leda I've found many facts on including her marriage and passing, another brother William M. 1870-1941 found those barebones facts but nothing else.

Hi Sandra,
Looks promising but I'm unable to access the obit due to a runtime error? Did you find a marriage for them?
Cr

Had no problem accessing the obit index through Coshocton Library - it is just an index - this doesn't give you automatic access to see the obit - unfortunately you would have to pay $3.00 (a couple of UK pounds) Here is the link to read up on it...............

As far as I know there are no marriages on line for the time frame you would require.
