He and his bride took up housekeeping in a home which he had previously built. This was on the farm a short distance west of Garner now known as a J. N. Sprole farm and tenanted by Floyd Franklin. Into this home two children were born, Viola and Elmer." [S175] Frances Gretchen (Klein) Leenerts, Descendants of Father Fiegenbaum (Chinook, Washington: F. Leenerts, 2002), pages 68-69.

Wellemeyer of St. Rose, Louisana."
