If I don't bring the epub file up in Sigil, the original displays with the correct characters. When I bring it up in Sigil and save, the wrong characters are there (are they Ascii? - I don't know what to call them).

The are UTF-8 being shown as ASCII. I am not sure why Sigil would switch the top line to remove the entry. That is really strange but you can also encode the same information in the <head> section as:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
Either should work but if both are in a file they must agree. Yes, you will need the fix in every file.
