More of Nina Cavenee Moller's Children - Wilson/Enke Bk.

It has really helped to go through this amazing compilation of Wilson/Enke information put together by Bonnie Cavenee Runge in 1977. Nina Cavenee Moller died at a young age, 35, leaving five children. We've written about Emil, Nina, Clinton, and now here's Gilbert.

Gilbert D "was born Nov. 6, 1933 near Wessington, SD, where as a child he lived in various places in and around that area, until his family moved to a farm near Huron in 1940. In 1942 his mother (Nina) died following surgery. The following year his family moved back to a farm southeast of Wessington where his father remarried Yvonne Shephard. A few months later they moved to Brookings, SD. In the spring of 1944, another move was made to Rosebud, SD where they remained until the following winter when they moved to Geddes, SD. After two additional moves in the Geddes area, they then moved to a farm 8 miles north of Platte, SD in 1948.

In 1956, he (Gilbert)joined the Army and served with the Third Infantry in the Korean War. He was discharged in 1955 as a Sgt. (E-5). He then went to work in the family implement business until 1959. He married Ruth Helen Gerlach on March 25, 1959. Gilbert was in retailing for several years working for J.J. Newberry and Sears. In 1970, he went into the agriculture seed business which he is in at the present time. They live in Nevada, Iowa and have 3 children;

The 5th child of Nina and Emil Moller was Gary LaVerne. "born Sept. 9, 1935 at Wessington. He married Gladys May Kayser. They live in Hot Springs, SD where he is a salesman of steel structures. They have 6 children;

Constance Marie born April 17, 1964 at Platte, SD
Julie Ann born August 24, 1965 at Platte, SD
Pamela Ann born October 15, 1967 at Platte, SD."

I don't know any of Gary or Gilbert's children. I need to get in touch with someone from these families. Interesting that Gilbert had twins. I need to compile the listing of twins born in this family (Wilson Family).
