George married Mary Altyra Widel on 13 Aug 1878 in Jackson, Iowa, United States. Mary (daughter of John F Widell and Susanna Jewett) was born on 05 Dec 1860 in Iowa, United States; died on 05 Dec 1893 in Jackson, Iowa, United States; was buried in Waterford Cemetery, Buckhorn, Jackson, Iowa, United States.

Other Events:

• Residence: 1880, Monmouth, Jackson, Iowa, United States
• Residence: 1885, Monmouth, Jackson, Iowa, United States

Notes:

On the 1870 Census, there are two Mary Widel(l)s listed, both in Monmouth, both the same age. *sigh*

Of the two, both have fathers born in PA. John Widel is listed on earlier censuses pretty consistently as John Wendle/Windle/Windel (with an N). Since the marriage, death, and cemetery records for M.A. consistently lists her as Widel, I think this might be a false connection, and that her father is actually Adam Widel.

Tracking Florence D Widel:

1870 census lists a boy named Clarence in the John F and Susan Jewett household of the right age. 1880 census lists a Della Widel with Susan. In 1885, a Florence D is living with Fred and Tyra Pratt.

In 1900, a Florence D. Riegel is married to a Frank Riegel in South Fork, Jackson Co., Iowa. She's the right age, and parentage is from Pennsylvania and Ohio (the birthplaces of John F. and Susan Jewett).

Ron R. has a page at http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=rrrose2&id=I066298 where he lists Frank Riegel married to a "Della Wehel". I've emailed Ron for more information.

Kay Lasander has a listing for Frank here: http://trees.ancestry.com/pt/person.aspx?pid=-1277029044&tid=4679698&ssrc=
...that lists him married to an "Adela", with a daughter named Florence Lula. I've emailed Kay for more information.

Notes:

1880 US Census, Father's birthplace OH, Mother's birthplace IN

1880 US Census he's listed as a Teamster in the Walters' home. In 1900, he's listed as a boarder in a home in Farmers Creek, Iowa. Since Mary was born in 1881, do we then assume that during that 20 year period, John married Hannah, they had one child, and then she died?

John married Hannah Elizabeth Walters in Clayton, Iowa, United States, and was divorced in Bet. 1882 and 1889. Hannah (daughter of James Solomon Walters and Mary Ann Radabach) was born on 4 Oct 1862 in Coffin's Grove, Delaware, Iowa, United States; died on 18 Feb 1926 in Creston, Flathead, Montana, United States; was buried in Fairview Cemetery, Columbia Falls, Flathead, Montana, United States.

His parents were Jacob J., and Plezzy (Alcott) Walter, the former a native of Pennsylvania, the latter of Ohio. The family came to Clayton County when our subject was about ten years old and settled in what is now Mallory Township. Ten years later they removed to Elk Township, where James S. was married on January 26, 1858 to Mary, daughter of George and Margaret (Kahel) Radabach. She is a native of Pennsylvania. Of eleven children born of this union, ten are living - Jacob M., who married Cora Wolidge, Hannah E, wife of John Dutton; James S., William S., Margaret E., Earnest M., Aaron, Lilly M., Amos R. and Jesse H. George W. died in infancy. In September, 1862 Mr. Walter enlisted in Company G, Sixth Iowa Cavalry and served until the close of the war, then returned home and followed farming in Delaware County five years. He then erected his present mill, which contains three sets of burrs and all the latest improved machinery. In politics he is a Republican and has held various local offices. His is one of our energic business men.
