• Notes

  Also on this gravestone is Gertrude "Gertie" May Ditzler Nonnenmocher. Published in the Lancaster (PA) New Era, Wednesday, 31 Jan 1968, pg. 3. "John L. Sweigart, Ephrata, Dies. John Lemon Sweigart, 77, 23 S. Oak St., Ephrata, died at 7:30 a.m. today at Ephrata Community Hospital after an illness of several months. He was born in Earl Township, a son of the late John R. and Wynona Geist Sweigart. He lived most of his life in Ephrata. He is survived by his wife; two sons; Loren W. Sweigart and Gilbert L. Sweigart, both of Akron; three grandchildren; two brothers; Elmer C. Sweigart of Mohnton R1 and Rayond G. Sweigart of Ephrata; and one sister, Florence M., wife of Edward Stork of Hyde Villa, Reading." I could not find a marriage record or announcement for John Sweigart to Gertrude M. (Ditzler) Nonnenmocher. Gertrude (Ditzler) was married to Martin C. Nonnemocher on 16 Mar 1918 and divorced in 1931. Parental links are from contributor W Sweigart (member #47641611).
