Ralph Raymond Fetterman was the second son and fourth child born to Sarah Longenberger and Isaac Fetterman. He married Hannah Mae McElhenny of Centralia on April 30, 1910, and their marriage was announced in the Democratic Sentinel on May 10, 1910 (Columbia County Historical & Genealogical Society). I have not located any concrete information about Mae's parents. Three children were born of this marriage:
-
Sarah Elizabeth (Beth) Fetterman (b. December 14, 1910);
-
Margaret Fetterman (b. July 13, 1912, d. July 14, 1912); and
-
Ralph W. Fetterman (b. August 23, 1913, d. March 1971).
On August 15, 1817, Ralph married Rebecca Jane Weller Fetterman, the widow of his brother William Wallace. They made their home in Pottsville, PA, and one child was born of this marriage:
-
Edna F. Fetterman (b. July 20, 1920, d. May 23, 2001).
Ralph is buried beside his first wife, Mae.
