David Peiffer (1867-1949) Miami co., OH
I came across a David A. Peiffer in the "old township section" of the Highland cemetary in Miami co., OH. His dates are listed as 1867-1949. On the same line is a Hattie M. 1871-1950 s/s. I do not know what the s/s means, it follows many listings. I also assume that Hattie is his wife. On the next line Peiffer, Hebert G. "brother" 1905-19--s/s and below that is Courtney, Mildred G. "sister" 1897-19--s/s.
Hebert and Mildred I guess are brother and sister, perhaps Mildred married someone named Courtney. I don't know if they are even related to David and Hattie, but if their graves are next to each other, it is likely that Hebert and Mildren are David and Hattie's children.
I am looking to know more about David. I have a family with father Jacob Piffer and mother Catharine. They were in the Miami co. census with son William born in 1861 in PA and son David born about 1868 in Ohio. I know nothing about David. William E. (known as Bill) married Louisa Dusickle and had 3 daughters. This family had a very tragic story. The father died in 1898 while working on the railroad. Later that year one of his twin 2 year olds died followed a month or so later by his wife. The remaining 2 girls (one being my great grandmother were raised by their mother's brother and his wife, Fred and Tilly Dusickle. They are listed as living with them in the 1910 census around Tipp City but there last name is listed as Peifer. Perhaps the David, brother to William, also used this spelling.
If anyone has any info on the David buried in this cemetary or about a David that might fit into my "Piffer" family, please let me know. Interestingly, William is listed in the county vital death records as Piffer, Louisa and the child Minnie are listed as Pipper. This family name has many variations.
Thanks,
Liz
