letters from him dated 1936 have the following stamp on them:
Direktor I.R. K. Wahl VDI
Trier, Martinstr. 7

3rd Generation
Ernest Wahl - came to America at an unknown time, attended a “Congress” in Washington, DC in 1935 for engineers and street builders, and in 1933 he lived at the following address
