    3. I do not have the pedigree in front of me, but this Zimmerman could have been the one who married my g grandfather's child by his second wife.  If anyone is interested, I will try to look it up.   I love these news stories!!!   Alanna --- On Sun, 6/7/09, B.

Truck in Wreck (1927) To: mostfran@rootsweb.com Date: Sunday, June 7, 2009, 3:00 PM THE FARMINGTON NEWS, Friday, Sept. 2, 1927. Bottling Co. Truck in Wreck Tues. A delivery truck of the Farmington Bottling Company, occupied by Charles Ebrecht, of Farmington, who was driving, and Charles Zimmerman, of Leadwood, was in a wreck Tuesday morning at 7:30 o'clock a mile out of Elvins, on the Bismarck Road.  Mr. Ebrecht and Mr. Zimmerman were enroute to Elvins and Leadwood. At the point mentioned, a car driven by a man by the name of Durham, who had been living in Bismarck, but was enroute to St. Louis to make his home, attempted to cut between the truck of the bottling company and a wagon containing a load of wood.  Durham's car hit the front end of the truck and knocked it over in the ditch.  The impact threw Zimmerman out of the truck.  He sustained cuts and bruises about his head and face and on his side.  It was first thought he had broken ribs.  One of his writs was also fractured. Durham took Zimmerman to Dr. Jones, in Elvins, for medical treatment and then took him to his home in Leadwood. Mr. Ebrecht wat injured.  The damage to the truck was slight.
