W. H. HUNTZINGER was born in Marion County, Ind, in 1842, his boyhood being spent on the farm. In 1862, he enlisted in the 79th Regiment Indiana Volunteers, and participated in all the many battles in which that gallant regiment was engaged, except that of Murfreesboro, from which he was absent on sick leave. He received a commission as First Lieutenant in the same regiment, and after the close of the war, came to Union County, Iowa, and purchased land, in August, 1865. In 1868, he married Miss Elizabeth Hegetswheeler, of Bates County, Mo., since which time he has devoted his energies to farming and also to the Sunday School cause, in which he is a prominent worker.
