Katherine, Peter Weiland is the great, great grandfather of my four children. John was my first husbands grandfather and I was close to both he and Grandma Weiland (Catherine Schu). In fact Catherine and my maternal grandmother worked together as young girls in a corset factory in Aurora. I was born and raised in Aurora and can assure you that Peter passed away in Aurora before I met the family. Peter, as I was told, was a known as "squire Weiland". A proud, dignified figure as he strolled the neighborhood in his later years. He was a devoted Catholic and our families belonged to the same German Parish. I would be more comfortable sharing this history with you if I knew your relation- ship to the family and thus your interest in reseaching the family history. I look forward to your reply.
