Notes - “The first anyone heard of Carolina, she was walking from Gerald with a suitcase in her hand. She stopped at a farmhouse and asked where F.M. Weirich lived. She was told and went on and newspaper clipping later announcing the marriage of F. M. Weirich and Carolina Park.
“...how did they meet? ..she was working in a boarding house or restaurant in Washingto...F.M. drove stock to Washington to ship by train. Maybe that is how they met...Another theory is that he met her through her brother Eli...(who) lived on the next farm from F.M.Weirich.
“Eli was known as Uncle Eely and Aunt Lindy and cousins, Lindy and Mally.....remembers an Uncle Sam visiting and taking him to Little Creek Cemetery....thinks William and mary are buried there.
“Wilbert did tell that his mother was jolly and liked to talk. It is believed the jolliness and sense of humor came from the Park side of the family. Carrie liked to tell her children stories, especially ghost stories. [1, 2]
