1909 – Лоша година за Паркер Зиммерман

меллие-боллингер-зиммерман

1909 је вероватно најгора година Паркер Лонзо Батор Зиммерман животу. Он је изгубио свој оба десет месеци стару ћерку Ида мај Зиммерман и своју другу супругу Мели Боллингер Зиммерман. Пре Паркера смрти у Кејп Гираурдеау Торнадо у 1949, he would bury two more of his children. Both of them were adults. I can only imagine how hard 1909

Ollie J. Zimmerman was the third son born to my great-grandfather Parker L. Zimmerman and his second wife Mollie Bollinger. Ollie and his twin sister Dollie were born on either April 27, 1906 or April 27, 1907. Since Ollie’s headstone says “1906”, I’m going with April 27, 1906 as his birthdate. У 1909, Ollie would lose his mother, када је Мели

great-grandpa-mosblech-ad

Eduard Mosblech is my maternal great-grandfather. Eduard was born in St. Лоуис, Missouri on October 24, 1884, to German immigrants Gustave Mosblech and Bertha Mosblech nee Monse. Often written as Edward but pronounced like putting together aid and ward, Eduard was as unique as his name. I struggled with writing much about him because the stories I heard about him
