Here he lived on a farm from 1869 to 1876. From Webster County he moved to Green, Butler County IA, where he lived three years, going thence to Hampton, Franklin County, Iowa, at which place he was engaged in the printing business. He then went to Sumner, Bremer County, where he ran the Sumner Gazette, and from there to Clarksville, Butler County, where he became the proprietor of the Tremont House. In April, 1882, he came to New Hampton, and assumed the proprietorship of the Central House. He was married, August 14, 1880, to Emma Cannan, a native of Hampton, and they have four children--Clara, Emma, Elmer and Ettie." (This contradicts census records that Edwin & Emma had no children. ________________________ obit "The Herald", Eldora, Iowa, Feb 20, 1901 The funeral services of the late Edwin H. Yarger were held at Hotel Winchester on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock and were conducted by Rev. L.C. Clark, pastor of the M.E. church, after which all that was mortal of the once popular mine host of this hotel were laid away in the beautiful cemetery on the hill just east of town. Mrs E.H. Yarger (Emma Canaam) will continue to conduct Hotel Winchester and under her management it is safe to predict that the house will continue to hold its present popularity with the traveling public. Mrs Yarger has had long practical experience in the conduct of a hotel and understands the needs of the public. _______________________ son of Joseph Yarger, (burial unknown)
