MAGDALENA BONHEIMER

  The funeral services of Mrs. Magdalena (Maggie) Bonheimer were held at the 
home of her niece, Miss Edith Wilhelm, in Summit Township near Meyersdale, at 
2:30 Wednesday afternoon, her body having been brought here from Philadelphia, 
where she died Sunday, August 15, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William E. 
Hainley.  The services were conducted by Rev. Nelson C. Brown of Amity Ev. and 
Reformed Church, Meyersdale, followed by burial in the Fritz Church cemetery 
under the direction of H. R. Konhaus.
  Mrs. Bonheimer was born June 7, 1861, at Pocahontas, Greenville Township, the 
daughter of George and Anna (Kneiriem) Altmiller.  She was married in 1881 to 
Henry Hauger.  Three children were born of this union: H. Clinton and Ralph 
Hauger of Orrtanna, Pa., and Emma, Mrs. Willis E. Hainley of Philadelphia, all 
of whom survive as well as six grandchildren; three great-grandchildren, and one 
brother, John Altmiller of McKeesport.  Her first husband, Mr. Hauger, died in 
1890.  In 1898 Mrs. Hauger married Albert Bonheimer, who survives.  They had one 
child who died in childhood.  Mrs. Bonheimer made her home in York, Pa., for 
several years and later in McKnightstown, but for the past several years she 
made her home with her niece, Miss Wilhelm.  After becoming ill in the summer of 
1941 she was removed to the home of her daughter in Philadelphia, where she 
died.  Mrs. Bonheimer united with the Reformed Church at an early age and was a 
regular attendant all her life.
