HELP WITH CITATION FOR NEWSPAPER OBITUARY

Posted: 4 Dec 2006 4:13PM GMT
Classification: Query
I am in urgent need of some help locating the proper citation for a clipped newspaper obituary.

I have been working very hard on a project for my niece, who has been serving in the U.S. Navy for well over a year now. She will only be back home on leave for another 8 days...before she is shipped overeseas to Kuwait.

So please note that this is an URGENT need...time is so critical on this piece of information...

Once she goes overseas, it may take a great deal of time longer to accomplish this task.

Not only does this young lady want to serve her country, she also desires to honor those of her ancestors that also served this country as patriots in time of war...so we are trying to do the leg work, and research for her application to the Daughters of Union Civil War Veterans Society membership...paper work and application are here in front of me as I type this up...but there is no citation for a very important obituary that was simply clipped out of the old newspaper at the time...and it will not be acceptable as a form of documentation without it's correct citation.

So here is what we have, please help us with the citation, which must include the following:

Name of Newspaper, and location of publication (town or city) Date it was published, section, page and column.

Obituary reads as follows:

"RETIRED FARMER DEAD; SERVICES ARE ANNOUNCED

Edwin Fogle, 90, a retired farmer, died at 3:30 a.m. Sunday at the home of his son, Ernest W. Fogle, 192 Eighth Street.
Funeral Services will be held Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the Candlish Chapel, where the body is in state. Officiating will be the Rev. Horace Grubner. Burial will be in Rienzi Cemetery.
Born Aug. 7, 1859, at Ypsilanti, Mich., a son of James and Mary Green Fogle, Mr. Fogle was married in 1886 in Mankato, Kas., to Mary Calvin. After her death Mr. Fogle was mrried to Miss Hannah Allen, the ceremony having been performed in 1903 at Shell Lake. Mr. Fogle farmed in Kansas, and moved to Shell Lake in 1880 and to Parrish in 1910. Mr. Fogle, who resided in the last year at the home of his son, previously had spent several winters here.
In addition to Ernest Fogle, survivors include three other sons, Elmer J. Fogle, Neenah, Lloyd Fogle, Gresham, Ore., and Edwin Fogle Jr., Olympia, Wash.; two daughters, Mrs. Phillip Brinkert, and Mrs. Merten Thompson, Battle Creek, Mich., 39 grandchildren; and a number of great-grandchildren."

So we are looking for the citation for this obituary.
Edwin Fogle died 15 August 1949 in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Buried at Rienzi Cemetery...where is that?

This information is so important, as it establishes not only the marriage to both wives, but also the list of surving children...

Please respond with citation soon.

Thank you so much.
Many say they want to support our troops...but few find a practical way of acting on that wonderful thought.
This is a way to support a currently serving patriot of our country.
