I have culled all articles I could find in the Beaver Dam Argus. Items I'm seeking include: John M. Yorgey (d. Aug. 30, 1884 in Horicon) - obituary Catharine (Davidheiser) Yorgey (d. Apr. 19, 1905 while visiting Alabama) - obituary David K. Yorgey (d. Dec. 30, 1937 in Horicon) - obituary Maria (Rogers) Yorgey w/o John M. Yorgey (d. 1953 ) - obituary Rogers Yorgey (d. June 1966 in Horicon, former mayor of Horicon) - obituary Sylvia Yorgey w/o Rogers Yorgey (d. Apirl 1973 in Horicon) - obituary Sylvia and Rogers Yorgey - 1924 - marriage John D. Yorgey to Matilda Hoese - 1917 - marriage Marriage and/or obituaries for Emma (Yorgey) Reynolds and D. J. Reynolds, still living in Horicon in 1905 Blanche Yorgey (b. Oct. 12, 1886), married Arthur Wickman between 1930 and 1934, was librarian at public library to at least 1930 Roxie Yorgey (d. Jan. 18, 1983) married Aug. 15, 1912 to Arnold Wickman. The first Yorgeys moved to Horicon, WI in 1857 from Montgomery County, PA. That would have been John M. Yorgey (b. Sept. 1831 d. Aug. 30, 1884) and his wife Catharine (Davidheiser) Yorgey (b.April 9, 1831 D. April 19, 1905). John M. and Catharine had 9 children: David K. m. Harriet Clement; Ann m. a Hamilton; Emma m. D. J. Reynolds; Katerine; Stella m. Joseph Ablard; John M. m. Matilda Hoese; George (b. Aug. 12, 1865 D. Jan. 18, 1901, never married); Frank Yorgey; and Sarah Yorgey, probably never married. Also looking for information on the Oak Hill Cemetery in Dodge Co., where Yorgey and Catherine (Davidheiser) Yorgey may have been buried with his son John M. Yorgey and Maria (Rogers) Yorgey.
