Mrs. Mary Ann Zimmerman has been a resident of Idaho since 1912, when she came to this state with her husband, the late William Zimmerman, who passed away July 24, 1916, in St. Mary's Hospital at St. Joseph, Missouri. They had lived for three years in Idaho and then on account of the health of Mr. Zimmerman returned to their farm in Kansas, upon which they were making their home at the time of his demise. Mr. Zimmerman was born in Hawkins county, Ohio, October 20, 1844, and was a son of Casper and Elizabeth (Fox) Zimmerman. The father was a native of Germany and came to the United States when fifteen years of age. William Zimmerman went to Missouri with his parents when a young man and joined the Union army from Harrison county, that state, serving until the end of the war. He was largely on duty in Missouri and was both private and bugler with Company G of the Fourth Missouri Cavalry.
On the 7th of November, 1869, Mr. Zimmerman was married in Worth county, Missouri, to Miss Mary Ann Pyle, who was born in Perry county, Illinois, April 12, 1850, a daughter of Ulysses and Amelia (Gill) Pyle. The latter was a sister of Alethia Gill, who became the wife of Thomas Logan, the brother of General John A. Logan. The parents of Mrs. Zimmerman were also natives of Illinois, the former born in Perry county and the latter in Jackson county. They removed with their family to Worth county, Missouri, when Mrs. Zimmerman was but six years of age, and she was the eldest of a family of eleven children, six sons and five daughters, of whom seven are yet living, but she is the only one residing in Idaho. In 1874 Mr. Zimmerman and his wife removed to Smith county, Kansas, where he took up a soldier's claim of one hundred and sixty acres. They improved this and resided thereon for twenty years, after which it was exchanged for another farm, Mr. Zimmerman devoting his entire life to agricultural pursuits. In 1912 he and his wife came to Idaho and purchased the present nice little ranch property of seven acres on which Mrs. Zimmerman now resides. It is pleasantly and conveniently located a mile and a half southwest of Emmett and is an attractive place. They still owned their Kansas farm of one hundred and sixty acres and in 1915, on account of his health, Mr. and Mrs. Zimmerman rented their Idaho home and returned to Kansas. In 1916 Mr. Zimmerman was taken to St. Mary's Hospital at St. Joseph, Missouri, where he died after an operation. Mrs. Zimmerman returned to the Idaho ranch near Emmett in 1917. Her youngest son, Ora Glenn Zimmerman, a young man of twenty-six years, resides with her and cares for the ranch. He is a veteran of the World war, having been at Camp Lewis when the armistice was signed. He was born in a sod house on the old homestead farm in Smith county, Kansas, November 26, 1893. After America's advent into the World war he went to Camp Lewis, where he remained for a year. There are five other children in the Zimmerman family, all older and all now married. These are: Wayne, who was born November 1, 1870; Ada Ambrosia, who was born August 27, 1875, and is now the wife of Daniel Byers, living near Emmett; Floyd L., who was born November 17, 1879; Ovia Fay, born February 6, 1882. and now the wife of Amos Ormsbee, of Smith county, Kansas; and Gill C. born December 23, 1889. The son, Wayne, married Dora Marvin and lives upon a ranch adjoining his mother's property. He has three children. Mr. and Mrs. Byers have one living child. Floyd L. married Myrtle Kimball, the only daughter of Mrs. Lillie Chambers of Emmett, and resides in Smith county. Kansas. He and his wife have ten children. Mr. and Mrs. Ormsbee have three children. Gill C. married Vina Barry and makes his home in Smith county, Kansas.
Mr. Zimmerman was a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and also of the Grand Army of the Republic and his political belief was that of the republican party. Mrs. Zimmerman is a member of the Baptist church and of the Woman's Relief Corps, and her sons, Wayne and Ora, are both identified with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. All the various members of the family are held in high esteem in the different localities in which they reside. Mr. and Mrs. Zimmerman were careful in their training and instilled into their sons and daughters principles which have been guiding forces throughout their lives. In Idaho, where she makes her home, Mrs. Zimmerman is held in the highest esteem by all who know her.
