Ignatz Fox's birth was noted in the Caldwell Citizen's Press on 25 Nov 1880:
Birth, on the 15th last, to Fred Fuchs and wife, a son.From Muth & Fox:
Ignatz Fox lived on the 80 acre (later 120 acres) farm about a half mile east of Fulda, Ohio where his grandparents, Jacob and Magdelena (Zwick) Singer retired and died. This farm was later purchased by Ignatz' parents, Frederick and Sybilla Fox. Originally, Ignatz' parents lived in the large house that had been Jacob Singer's. Ignatz and Barbara started their family in a smaller house adjacent to the big one. Later, when Ignatz and Barbara's family grew, they exchanged houses with his parents and moved into the big house. Here they raised their family of six children.In 1910, Ignatz (29) and Barbara Fox (24) owned a home in Enoch Twp. next to the farm of his parents. Also in the house was their only child, two year old Florentine.
At the time of the 1920 census, Ignatz (39) and his pregnant wife Barbara (35) owned the Singer farm in Enoch Twp. Living in their household were their children Florenteen (13), Clod (8), Irene (6), Fredrick (3 yrs 8 mos), and Ignatz' parents, Frederick (82) and Sebilia (79) Fox. Florentine and Claude attended school. Adjacent farms belonged to widow Elizabeth (Blake) Ritterbeck and Henry Hohman.
In 1923, Barbara Fox and her daughter Irene contacted typhoid fever. Typhoid is a contagious disease that can be spread by consuming food that has been prepared by someone with the disease, or if the bacteria gets into drinking water. It was common in non-industrial America 100 years ago. Persons with typhoid fever usually have a sustained fever as high as 103° to 104° F. They may also feel weak, or have stomach pains, headache, or loss of appetite. In some cases, patients have a rash of flat, rose-colored spots.
When Barbara was ill, Lena Hartman Singer, wife of Ignatz' cousin Frank Singer, came from Braddock, PA to help care for the family. Little Irene survived the illness, but, sadly, Barbara succumbed to the disease Lena Singer stayed on for a while, but when she left, the family was left in the care of Ignatz. The youngest child, Rita, was barely a year old. With the help of his oldest daughter, Florentine, Ignatz raised the children and took care of his parents until their deaths.
On Jul 12, 1925, Ignatius and children attended a triple birthday party at the home of Frank Smoth to honor Mrs. Alex (Tillie) Gerst, Frank Smith, and Ignatius' father, Fred Fox. See notes of Fred Fuchs (Fox) for text of the article from the Zanesville Times Recorder.
After most of the family were grown and gone, Ignatz sold the farm to Terrance and Alberta (Crum) Hohman. Ignatz moved to the village of Fulda with his daughter Marcella. In 1945, he married Veronica Crock Johanning, widow of Ed Johanning and moved to Caldwell where he lived comfortably. As a hobby, he raised beef cattle on a farm near Fulda, and at the age of 87 years still drove a car and went hunting and fishing. His son, attorney Fred Fox, lived with his father and stepmother. Ignatz died at the age of 88 and is buried in St. Mary's cemetery.

WEDDING BELLS
An affair long to be remembered by those in attendance was the marriage of Ignatz
Fox and Miss Barbara Gerst, which took place at the Fulda church Tuesday morning
May 14, 1907, Rev. J.B. Oeink officiating. A large number of invited friends and
acquaintances witnessed the ceremony that made them man and wife and afterwards
accompanied them to the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Gerst, where
the day was spend in a manner becoming of such an occasion, and where the newly
married were the recipients of many and valuable presents. Mr. and Mrs. Fox are two
of Fulda's very best young people and admirably fitted to travel life's journey together.
They will reside at Fulda where the groom continues to take care of his aged parents' farm,
as he has so diligently and faithfully done in the past. May they encounter no troubles
and tribulations as they travel life's uncertain road, and may their married life be one of
unadulterated happiness and bliss.
