William A Wininger Spring Valley
Herald
May 5, 1911
William A. Wininger, one of the oldest
and most highly respected citizens of this part of the state died at his home
one and a half miles south of this place early Wednesday morning (May 3, 1911). Mr. Wininger
had been very ill for several months and at times during the winter it was not expected
that he could survive for more than a few days, but his wonderful vitality
fought off death till Wednesday morning when he passed away. He formerly lived
in Dubois County
south of Hillham, but has owned and lived on the Case farm near Mt.
Lebanon for the past
year or so.
He was past eighty years of age and
was a life long member of the M.E.
Church. He was one of
the pioneer settlers of this section of the state and a typical representative
of that hardy type of American citizen that is now almost extinct
He was buried at Union
Valley Thursday.
