"The Werner Record", Werner, Dunn County, ND, April 25, 1919  

 

"J.A. YARGER DEAD" resided in Morris, Minnesota for many years

 

The people of the community were shocked Tuesday when it was learned that 

J.A. Yarger had died suddenly that morning.  Mr. Yarger started to the 

farm that morning apparently in his usual health, and was found a few 

moments later, by Geo. Davis, lying beside the buggy with his head 

pillowed on his arm.  His sons were called and he was taken home, but 

passed away just as they reached the house.  Heart failure undoubtedly 

being the cause of death.  

  James A. Yarger was born in Pennsylvania in 1849 and came to Wisconsin 

when a boy.  Later he moved to Webster City, Iowa, where he resided for 

many years; and where he met Miss Martha Hart whom he married July 5th, 

1874.  The family later moved to Morris, Minn. and came to Werner, N. 

Dak. in 1916.

  Mr. and Mrs. Yarger were the parents of nine children, two of whom died 

in infancy and seven still living:  John, George, Harry and Marie of 

Werner, ND.; Perry of Palla, CA, Clarence and Ed of Morris, MN and William 

of Starbuck, MN.  Deceased is also survived by two brothers, J.A. and 

William Yarger of Eldon, MO.  Mr. Yarger was a devout member of the church, 

and a God fearing man who's influence was ever working for the good of 

his fellows.  He had rounded out his full three score and ten years, and 

met his maker with the knowledge that his work had been well done.  The 

remains were taken to Morris, MN and laid by the side of the life-long 

companion who crossed to the other shore less than two years ago."
