Jeffersonville (IN) Weekly Journal, February 19, 1897, p. 1. The mother of Henry F. Wrocklage died Wednesday in Louisville of consumption. Before her death she requested her son to marry on her birthday. Wrocklage and Miss Lena Hermerle of 1109 Hancock Street, that city, were engaged. The prospective groom did not think it would be proper for him to marry so soon after his mother's demise. Accordingly, he called on Father Bax of St. John's Catholic Church and asked his advice upon the subject. The Rev. gentleman told him that he could see nothing wrong in obeying his dead mother's wish. With this information, Wrocklage visited his betrothed and the marriage followed yesterday, the Rev. Father Bax officiating.
