General Notes: Husband - William G. Ziegler

---

He was reared and educated in Butler County, Pennsylvania, and learned the printer's trade in the office of the old Democratic Herald, which, at that time, was owned by his uncle, Capt. Jacob Ziegler. He remained in the printing office, gradually rising from one position to the next until he became foreman. In 1888 he became part owner and continued to issue the same newspaper until June, 1899, when he sold his interest, after an association with that journal of twenty-four years' duration. In April, 1884, in partnership with C. M. and W. J. Heineman, he established the Times and he continued with this publication until the fall of 1885. In 1900 he established the Ziegler Printing Company, job printers and bookbinders.
He was actively identified with the musical interests of Butler for over a quarter of a century, having served as a popular band and orchestra conductor for this period. With his wife and son, he belonged to the Lutheran Church.
