Hoping someone can clear up a mystery for me. There is an obituary for a Lucille (Wiegand) Dabbs. Does anyone know something about Lucille? Her name may have been Albertha L. or Alberta L. Wiegand/Weigand. I'm trying to find out which Dabbs she may have married. Here's part of the obit: Died 24-03-1981, buried 25-03-1981, Oak Grove cemetery. Lucille Wiegand Dabbs, 81, died at her home in Jerseyville March 22, following an extended illness. Mrs Dabbs was born February 7, 1900 in Jersey County, the daughter of Albert & Lena (Weigel) Wiegand. There is a mention of stepsons (surname Beaty), but no mention of her husband. Thanks for any help. Judy Griffin, in Wisconsin

Judy--I think she was married to an Arthur Dabbs. She had two step-sons. Donald and Robert Beatty. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy" <judygriffin@tds.net> To: <ILJERSEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, February 26, 2005 5:32 PM Subject: [ILJERSEY] Wiegand, Albertha or Lucille > Hoping someone can clear up a mystery for me.

Arthur had a son Robert (Bobby)from a previous marriage. Bobby was a sophamore in the 1958 yearbook at Jersey Community High School, but doesn't appear in the 59 ' or 60'. Aunt Lucille was previously married to Christy Beatty who died from being burned severly when a corn picker caught fire and the gas tank blew up, engulfing him in flames. Bob Beatty ran the farm after his dad and Aunt Lucille got married and he moved to Jerseyville. Lucille was my mother's half aunt. She was Lucille Albertha Wiegand, born 7Feb1900 in Jerseyville, Jersey, Ill. She had 2 full sisters and 2 full brothers and 1 half sister. Arthur was a very large man. He had driven a dump truck on construction in the Alton area. I don't know for sure, but he was probably a union member, probably out of the Alton Teamster's Local. Aunt Lucille was previously married to Walter Pegrem and lived in Woody untill about 1956 or so when they moved into Carrollton, where Uncle Walter died of cancer. She was previously married to Ed Smith and Ed Hodge , both of whom died and left her a widow. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Toney & Shirley Scott" <t31scott@jvil.com> To: <ILJERSEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, February 27, 2005 8:11 PM Subject: Re: [ILJERSEY] Wiegand, Albertha or Lucille > Judy--I think she was married to an Arthur Dabbs.
