She was born in St. Boniface Aug 5, 1905, the daughter of Embry and Mary [Thomas] Weakland. She married William Kruise and they had one child, Mrs. Richard [Shrirley] Kutruff of Flinton. Funeral mass and burial at St. Lawrence. You asked about this at one point. I am pretty sure his parents were Martha Endler and Lawrence Kruise. Her brother married his sister, but I can't remember the names. Marilyn Kline Washington

Has anyone figured out who William Kruise's parents are m. to Viola Weakland?
