Jesse Theodore Derringer was the eldest child and son of Adam Derringer and Sarah Kilmer Derringer. He was born in Montgomery County, Ohio. His siblings were Arthur Chester Derringer (30 September 1889-13 December 1956) (my grandfather), Jennie Loretta Derringer Freed (11 May 1894- 30 September 1931) and Ida Derringer Bond Desjardins (25 October 1900- 28 April 1952).
Jesse's Mother, Sarah died in 1903 (from diabetes. I requested this info. from the Montgomery County Records and Archives) and his father married for a second time to Mary Elizabeth Beck (I must check the year). Four children were born of this marriage, Ralph (08 February 1907- 06 January 1933), Tresca Pauline(1910-?), Glenna (1912-1982)and Raymond (26 September 1913- September 1975).
Jesse married Mary Ann Luchsinger on 6 April 1905. He and Mary had 7 children. They were Edison (1906-1989), Ruth (1908-1933), Orville (1910-1972), Earl (1918-1919), Jesse, Jr. (1922-1983), James (1924-1925) and Dorothy (1926-1926). Jesse had a florist Company and I believe that Edison and possibly Orville worked in this family business.
Jesse married a second wife, Edna May Lightner (1894-1978) in 1953.
I met Jesse and Mary a few times and I have photos of them I will put on Findagrave as soon as I have the time.
Jesse passed away on March 23, 1971 from an unknown cause (for me). It would be nice to find his obit.
