Biography

Peter Martin Swigert was born on 15 March 1879 in Penn Twp., Jay Co., IN.1,2 He married Blanche Bears, daughter of John Wesley Bears and Rosa Alice Herrmann, on 27 March 1901, license dated 25 MAR 1901. Peter Martin Swigert died on 20 January 1960 in Bluffton, Wells Co., IN.

Peter Martin Swigert was also known as Morton M. Swigert.

Note:

From Richard K. Swigert, grandson:

"Morton and Blanche ran a geneal store in Fiat, Indiana. He is listed on his son Garth's birth certificate and in the 1910 and 1920 censuses as a merchant. Morton later went back to barbering and had his barber shop located in downtown Bluffton. He barbered up until the day he died in 1960.

Grandchildren's memories: The following episode seemed to take place every time we visited our grandparents in Bluffton, Indiana. Grandpa Swigert wore a hearing aid due to his partial deafness, and did not hear well even when it seemed to be working properly, or maybe he was just entertaining the dinner guests. At the conclusion of dinner, Grandma Swigert would push back her chair and say "I've had sufficient" and Grandpa would answer "Been a fishin?". "No", Grandma would say, "I've had plenty". Grandpa would then reply "You caught twenty?". Grandma would then look at Grandpa and say "You old fool!" and he would answer back "And broke your pole?". This was usually followed by a lot of laughter from everyone in attendance. Then the men retired to the living room and the ladies would clear the table and do the dishes."
