December 1912 saw the weddings of two young couples from the Ainsworth area. On December 21, Martha Klemm married Louis Weiler; and on the 26th, Bertha Nolte married Claude Campbell.
The first made a great splash.
The second barely got mentioned.
That's it for poor Birdie Nolte. She didn't get a word in the Gazette or anywhere else that I've found. Henry's only surviving daughter! — I said these people were quiet, but on such an occasion, you'd think they could stand to make a bit more noise.
By the way, the "Klenn" in the first article is a misprint. And Martha was the sister of Emma Klemm, who had married John Chester in 1905.
