Horatio Wigle, a member of one of the oldest and most prominent families of his section of County Essex, is a successful farmer and progressive citizen of Gosfield township, in addition to being identified with large business enterprises...
     Mrs. Horatio Wigle is a member of one of the pioneer families of the county. Its founder, as far back as traced, located in Kentucky, and was there captured by Indians and brought to Detroit at the same time as Leonard Scratch, who married Mary Munger. Joseph Munger, grandfather of Mrs. Wigle, was born before the family came to Colchester township, County Essex. There he engaged in farming, owning Lot 18, the Gore, which was later owned by the late Thomas Clark. When Mr. Munger sold his farm in Colchester, he removed to Black Hawk County, Iowa, taking up a homestead near Janesville, where he developed a beautiful property, and where he died. His wife, whose maiden name was Sarah Girty, survived him for several years. His family is a follows: Charles is a resident of Rockford, Illinois; Elizabeth married a Mr. Colstack, of Amherstburg, and died in Windsor; Sarah married and moved to California, where she died; Alexander owns and occupies a farm in Black Hawk County, Iowa, adjoining the old Munger homestead; Thomas Turner was the father of Mrs. Wigle; John resides near Detroit, Michigan; Theodore lives in Michigan.
     Thomas Turner Munger was born in 1828 in Colchester and was a young man when the family moved to Iowa, where he resided for some time, later removing to his present home at Toledo, Ohio. In Colchester he married Almira McCormick, a daughter of Matthew McCormick, and to this union were born: Delorius S., wife of Horatio Wigle; William, who as accidentally killed in Gosfield at the age of twenty-one years; Charlotte, who married (first) Frank Huntley and (second) Samuel Cook, and resides at East Toledo, Ohio; Arizona M., wife of Peter Lovelace, of Toledo, Ohio; Sophronia, who died at the age of six years; Bertha, who married George Agneau, and died at the age of twenty; Wilhelmina, who died aged three years; Althea, who died aged five years; and Mark, a resident of Toledo.
