[It is noted that some family historians have listed his name as Herman, but that it incorrect as seen in the Death Records of both Heiman Sr and Heiman Jr, as well as in a number of other public records including censuses.]

He was married 1st about 1889 to Margaret Elizabeth "Maggie" Johnson (ca 1860-1895). He was married 2nd on February 10, 1897 in Nashville to Calphurina P "Callie" Drake (1877–1940), and they later divorced [possibly before the time of the 1920 census].

Working for Nashville Gas & Heating Company and living at 914 West Douglas Avenue, Nashville, Heiman was 76 years old and a widower when he died at home, cause unknown, on November 29, 1936. Burial was the next day in [Nashville] City Cemetery. [At the time of his death, he was listed as the widower of Maggie E ( -- ) Skeggs.]

Much of the above is from his Death Certificate, with L P Skeggs of 914 West Douglas as the informant.

Known children of Heiman and Callie:
~ Joseph Drake Skeggs (ca 1897– )
