Helen Weishaar 1st communion in Chicago Heights, Illinois in 1894: Helen Weishaar married Joe Thiel. Joe had a farm 'across the border' from Illinois in Crown Point, Indiana. Helen and Joe had a nice family (Bill, Clarence, Elizabeth, Francis, George...am I forgetting anybody?) and they all married and had families of their own.
