Ida E. Miller was born in Holstein, Iowa on Nov. 8, 1901; the daughter of George and Mary Frances Miller. She was the 11th child of 15, and they raised 12 of the children to adulthood. The Miller family lived on a farm at Schaller, Iowa, where she received her education. The family later moved to East Helena, Montana and Glendo.

In Glendo she met John Bergan and they were married April 26, 1922 in Douglas. In 1924 they left their homestead and moved to Casper, where he worked at Standard Oil. In 1929 they bought and operated the Deer Creek Poultry Ranch, which later became Bergan Repair, owned and operated by their son, Bill Bergan and family. They retired from the Poultry Ranch in the mid 1950s. They traveled extensively, spending 20 winters in Mesa, Ariz. In 1975 they returned to their home on Deer Creek to spend the rest of their lives.

She is survived by her daughter-in-law Esther Bergan of Glenrock; grandchildren Arthur Bergan of Glenrock and Sharon Dukes of Casper; and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, John, on Sept. 26, 1980; her son, William "Bill" Bergan on Jan. 24, 1989; 14 brothers and sisters; and one granddaughter, Judy Bergan in January, 1976.

Information was obtained from her obituary in the Douglas Budget October 2, 1996.
