Rebecca,
A definite possibility of a match in my family is the marriage of Permilia A. (Millie?) Esslinger (b. 13 Jan 1875; d. 30 Mar 1920; bur. West Fork Cemetery) to Henry Carl Wilhelm Nolte, Jr. (b. 28 May 1875 West Fork Township; d. 5 Mar 1961; bur. West Fork Cemetery). Henry, Jr. was s/o Henry Carl Wilhelm Nolte, Sr. and Carolyn Korfmacher.
Henry, Jr. and Permilia had six children: Mildred, Lyla, Lowell, Kenneth, Carolyn and Doris. Mildred m. Herbert Alexander, Lyla m. Henry Timmerman, Lowell m. Lucille Kendol, Kenneth m. Lotus Hasselgrove, Carolyn died before age 2 and is also buried in West Fork Cemetery, and for Doris, I have NFD (No Further Data). Some time after Permilia died in 1920, Henry, Jr. married Lucy Slade (NFD).
Henry Carl Wilhelm, Sr. was s/o Ernst Wilhelm and Engel Sophia (Fischer) Nolte, who are also buried in West Fork Cemetery and are my 2nd-great grandparents. Henry, Sr. was the second of eight children of Ernst and Engel and older brother to Carl Wilhelm "Charles" Nolte, my great-grandfather. Coincidentally, Ernst and Engel are also the 2nd-great grandparents of the actor Nick Nolte, through their sixth child, Ludwig Hermann "Herman" Nolte and his wife, August Ann Voges.
I have/had no parental information for Permilia, but find the locale and name similarities quite convincing that our families are related here.
Hope this helps a little bit...
