Marriage Notes for Mary Busse and J Wieghaus:

The following story was told to me on 2/1/1998 by Jeff Owens, husband of Paula Wieghaus, as told by his father-in-law and his wife's uncle:  "There was a condiderable amount of friction caused by the marriage of Joseph "Jr." to Maria Busse, his cousin.  This supposedly caused him to be refused burial rights in the original family plot.  Hence the new plot, Sec 5, Lot 301."
