WILLIAM
E. YODER, a well known young undertaker and funeral
director at St. Marys, was born on a farm in Harrison township,
Logan county, this state, Dec. 12, 1892, and is a son of
James L. and Almedia (Hinkle) Yoder, both of whom were born
in that same county and the latter of whom is still living
there. Her parents were Pennsylvanians. The late
James L. Yoder was born in the city of Bellefontaine, county
seat of Logan county, and was a farm he had bought in Harrison
township, that county, and there spent the remainder of his
life, his death occurring in March, 1917. To him and his
wife were born four children, all of whom are living, the
subject of this sketch having a sister, Bertha Lee, and
two brothers, Clarence H. and Leslie J. Yoder.
Reared on the home farm in Harrison township, Logan county,
William E. Yoder finished the course in the Bellefontaine
high school and supplemented this by a course in the normal
school at Manchester, Ind., specializing in commercial forms and
teaching methods and then received an appointment as a teacher
in the schools of Porto Rico. One year of teaching service
on this tropical island proved enough for him, however, and i
the next year he returned to Ohio and entered the Cincinnati
College of Embalming, with a view to becoming a professional
undertaker and funeral director. After a course in this
college Mr. Yoder accepted a position as embalmer's
assistant in the undertaking establishment at Jacksonville,
Fla., and after two years of practical experience there returned
to Ohio and opened an undertaking establishment at St. Marys,
where he since has been located and were he has done well.
Mr. Yoder has a well equipped establishment and his
services as a funeral director are marked by close attention to
the best methods accepted in modern practice. Mr. Yoder
is a Free mason and is also affiliated with the Odd Fellows, the
Knights of Pythias and the Knights of the Macabees, while he and
his wife are members of the German Reformed church. On
Nov. 12, 1916, William E. Yoder was united in marriage to
Ertha Zollman, who also was born in Logan county,
daughter of S. E. and Ora (Russell) Zollman of Lewistown,
and to this union two children have been born, Samuel Edward
and Thomas Frederick. The Yoder undertaking
establishment is advantageously located at the corner of Front
and Spring streets, in the very heart of the business section of
St. Marys.
