Alphonse Pollpeter and Gertrude Boeding were married on September 15, 1936 at St. Mary’s Church in West Point, Iowa. Gertrude is Walt’s second cousin once removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Alphonse is the son John and Catherine Boeding Pollpeter. He was born on April 26 1911 in West Point, Iowa. Alphonse was a farmer at the time of his wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gertrude was born in Ipswich, South Dakota. Her parents were William and Catherine Wellman Boeding. Gertrude moved West Point in the early 1930s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alphonse and Gertrude made there home on a farm near West Point. By the 1950 census, all five of their children had been born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Alphonse and Gertrude were not the only siblings who got married within the family. Alphonse’s sister Lenore married Gertrude’s brother Vincent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve talked about Alphonse’s brother Stacy in this post<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was working on this post, I realized that there was another relationship between the two families. Gertrude’s father William Boeding and Alphonse’s mother Catherine Boeding are first cousins! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alphonse died on September 26, 1975. Gertrude died on March 21, 2006.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
