I don't know what Caroline (Sapper) Nelson did about her nine-day-old infant — perhaps she wasn't able to attend her sisters' wedding. On the other hand, I'd be surprised if Albert and Frieda Witt didn't drive up from the Kegebein farm to see his brother married.

I don't know much about Emil Henschel. He was born in Germany in 1890 and came to this country in 1905. I can't find him in the 1920 census.

Emil Henschel moved into the Strom farm at the north end of Michigan Ave. He wired the house for electric; I saw a 1919 clipping where he asked for the town to extend the "incandescent line" from the end of Mich ave to his house.
His name appears on the plat maps.
