Bill Wehling lived and worked near Isabel, Kansas, for 46 years. He now
     lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and owns and operates a Drywall
     texturing business.
       Bill, born to Arthur Esterhousing Wehling and Mildred Dotson on February
     26, 1925, married Gertrude Bessie Oller, daughter of Gene and Bessie Oller
     from Cunningham, Kansas, in Klein, Texas, on October 14, 1945. At this time
     Bill was about to go overseas to Europe in World War II. Bill's folks took
     Gertrude to Klein so the couple could buy their marriage license. Bill and
     Gertrude bought their marriage license with a two dollar bill they had
     saved for three years while in high school at Isabel. This 2 dollar bill
     was then bought back by Bill's dad, and he carried it in his wallet until
     their 25th wedding anniversary. He then gave it to Lynn Wehling, his grandson,
     to buy his marriage license with.
       Bill and Gertrude have four children; Laile is a Naval Electronics 
     instructor in Jacksonville, Florida; Lorraine Herbel lives in Brush, Colorado;
     Lynn lives in Colorado Springs; and Jane Brooks lives in Longmont, Colorado.
       Bill and Gertrude have six grandchildren: Jason, Sarah and Laura Herbel,
     Richard and Robert Wehling, and Bryan Brooks.
       Bill still farms his parents small farm outside of Isabel for his mother
     who now lives in Colorado Springs.
