Eggiman, Oscar died 1894

EGGIMAN, HEUER

Elkader Register, Thur., 29 Mar. 1894.

The angel of death again visited the family of Jacob Eggiman Sunday last, and took one of the twins aged about 2 years. It is sad that they are called to part with three of their children.

Notes:
- Buried in Wagner Twp. cemetery (aka U.B. cemetery) where he has gravestones- assuming the dates on the stone are correct, the son was Oscar (1883-1884). The other siblings who died in 1894 were August & Minna.

- From the obituary of Jacob Eggiman:
"On December 14th, 1882, he was united in marriage to Friederike Heuer of Boardman township. To this union were born seven children, four sons and three daughters. In the spring of 1894 during a scarlet fever epidemic all of the children were down with the dreadful disease and in spite of the best care, three of them were called to their heavenly home."

- From the obituary of Louise Eggiman, the sister of the children:
"Preceeding her in death, besides her parents were two brothers and a sister who died in childhood."
