Great Grandmother

Wilhelmine Kilian Hindel Seitel

Wilhelmine's first husband (our ancestor) was quite a bit older than she leaving Wilhelmine a fairly young widow at his passing. She then married Josef Seitel (shown above). He was a widower with ten children, most of them grown. That would seem to be a bit of baggage for her to take on but it would appear and it was reported that their marriage was a happy one and Wilhelmine was quite fond of her stepchildren and they of her.
