Ogden Family History
In 1905, a beautiful young woman, Pearl W., became the bride of Ernest E. Ogden. For her health reasons, they relocated to San Benito, TX, where later she died, as a result of her infirmary. After Pearl’s death, Ernest ate meals in a boarding house. He met a young widow, Agnes Chatelle Griffin and her young son, George. Ernest and Agnes married in November 1918 and had three daughters; Mary Catherine (Ogden) Zimmerman (†) Priscilla Doris (Ogden) Bush (†), and Patricia (Patty) Louise (Ogden) Dickerson.
How amazing is fate that Pearl’s passing led to the beautiful 52 year marriage of Ernest and Agnes Ogden!
