Bio
Merrick County History - Roy Wagner was the third child of August and Johanna Wagner. He was born February 23, 1899, at home near Scribner. He was six years old when his family moved to Colorado. One time while he and his brother, Clause, were herding cows, a rattlesnake bit the nose of their dog and he died before they got him home. His parents came to Central City in 1912. He attended rural schools in Merrick County and attended Nebraska Central College one winter. He helped his father with the farming until 1923 when he married Lizzie Zlomke at Archer, and began farming for himself. Lizzie was born July 3, 1898 at Duff, Nebraska and attended school in Rock County. She came to Central City in 1915. They went to Scribner on their honeymoon. They farmed twenty three years in Merrick County. In 1944 he purchased a farm in Hamilton County and lived there until 1962 when they bought their present home at 2123 South 14th Avenue Central City. Roy and Lizzie celebrated their fiftieth Wedding Anniversary in January, 1973 with open house at Methodist Church in Central City. In January, 1981, they observed their fifty-eighth Anniversary at home with relatives and friends.
