Copied Faye Zimmerman* Scrapbook
Marker dedication went well – 3 Post 6 Explorer Scouts of 1965 & mother there. Just wish it were a bronze marker & not a plastic sign! Judege Myers idea. But he spoke well of the Indian Trails in 1781 – Then on to Fanny & Floys – But they had a cold & couldn’t go to Ada with us to visit Faye & Gayle Zimmerman. Faye was delighted to have her clippings copied & new protectors over the originals. She gave me the originals of Samuel & Suzanne Zimmerman, Bakers Golden Wedding, Samuel’s death & David Hemmerly’s death in 1895. Then she gave me a deep dish – ironstone china – tea pattern that the Samuel Baker’s gave the Peter Zimmermans on their golden wedding in 1891. It was on the table the day Carolline Hemmerly Zimmerman (Mrs. Peter) entertained Sarah Baker Hemmerlya s she came from Dr. where she learned she had cancer. It is to go to Sarah Haldeman – throught David – Supper at Fanny & Floys – home by 9:00 PM.
[*Faye is a 3rd cousin descended from Margaretha Hemmerly. She and her sister Gayle (both spinsters) were in possession of the Hemmerly papers from Germany until given to David Haldeman in 1967. (see Ancestry.com]
