Agnes Woolsey Bacon on Thursday, 9 July 1931. Ziegler and Agnes published a monthly 4 page journal about the Sargent family and all the relatives. He started this in 1943, as a way for the family to know about the servicemen who were serving in WW II. He had received, and subsequently quoted, many letters from Sargents overseas. Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, all were mentioned - although the year was not printed for women over the age of 21. He also had become interested in researching the ancestors of Joseph B Sargent and Elizabeth Collier Lewis (his grandparents). Every issue would contain stories about the ancestors.
