General Notes: Husband - Charles Wesley Zeigler


After graduating from the Butler (Pennsylvania) High School, he became a student at the Renfrew Business College, from which he was graduated about 1888. He then learned the carpenter's trade, which he followed three years, then, with his brother, William, came to Duquesne, Allegheny County, and there organized the firm of Zeigler Brothers, retail dealers in lumber which they continued until 1907, when his brother Harry was admitted to the firm, and it became The Zeigler Lumber Company, with Charles W. Zeigler as the president. In time it became the oldest firm of its kind in the section, also did some mill work in connection with its regular routine, and employed from fifteen to twenty men regularly. In January, 1914, Mr. Zeigler sold his interests in this concern, and devoted his time to real estate, in which the firm was interested for ten years. He also represented four fire insurance companies, was a director in the Times Publishing Company, did some contract work, and generally had several contracts to superintend at the same time. Always an ardent supporter of the Republican party, he served his community as a member of the common council, in 1906. He was a member of the Reformed Church, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and the Junior Order of United American Mechanics. [GPHWP, 945]
