Hello Lisa,
I'm not related to this family, but thought I would try to help in the search for Willie Ziegler. [On the 1900 census of Wayne County, Missouri her name appears to be WILLIE].
Have you thought of ordering obits for her sister/mother?
I found a link to the Clark County Public Library; for $1.00 each you can order obits: [US GenWeb site for Clark County, Ohio]
The obituary index will provide you with the date on which someone's obituary appeared in the Springfield newspaper. It currently covers the years from 1920 to the present. Newspapers can be viewed on microfilm at the Main Library, 201 South Fountain Avenue. Self-service copies can be made in the Library for 10 cents per page. The cost to receive copies through the mail is $1.00 per item requested. Please send the name, date, and page number (if available) of the obituary along with payment and a self-addressed, stamped envelope to:
Clark County Public Library
Reference Department
201 S. Fountain Ave.
P.O.Box 1080
Springfield, OH 45501-1080
Obituaries will not be sent in response to e-mail requests.
Lillie Irene Heeg died 9 April 1988; her last residence was Springfield, OH. Her obit appears on page 7d, paper dated 10 April 1988. Perhaps her obit would tell something about her sister?
Regards,
Barbara
