    3. I looked in the latest area-wide phone book of the area, and came up with a big list of Webers. There is one extremely close to Stiles that might be of some value to you. Dick L. Weber 5337 Hwy 22 E Lena WI 54139 920-834-5103 The rest of the Webers were kind of spread out on an arc from Suring to Crivitz to Menominee and Stephenson MI. Hope this helps.
