The Husbands of Elizabeth (Werling) Weber & Paulina Christine (Werling) Weber
were brothers. Caroline & Eva Maurer were sisters.
The family name of Ferdinand Werling has suffered many variations
in spelling- corruptions possibly caused by others unfamiliar with the German
language. Variant spellings are Werlinger, Welling & Wallinger. But his
descedents have consistently used Werling as the family name & that justifies
using Werling as the proper spelling of the name
[629] Caroline Maurer was the sister of Eva Maurer, Ferdinand's Second wife

The birth date Of Mary Werling as calculated as 1850 from the 1880 census
does not agree with the tombstone date. Her headstone birthdate says
it was 1847. She was 74 years old at the time of death. I used 1847.
Mary lived with her daughter Catherine(Wolf) Demott after Charles' death.

In a letter to Mary Ursula (Wolf) Kuhne in 1952 from Catherine (Wolf) Demott,
Kate speaks of her "Grandpa Werling" and how he came to Peru, IL by riverboat
where he got tired of riverboat travel and took a stagecoach. He stopped
and stayed at Old Prospect Place for a week or more looking for suitable farm
land. Old Prospect Place was the boyhood home of Charles Wolf, and possibly
explains how Charles and Mary came to meet and marry.
