Beil, Esther Ruth (Marriage - 1941)

DANKEMYER-BEIL

Garden flowers furnished a fragrant setting for the wedding of Miss Esther Ruth Beil, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adolph W. Beil of Chili, to Gerald W. Dankemyer, son of Mr. and and Mrs. Freeman Dankemyer of the same village at the Chili Christ Lutheran Church at 4 o'clock this afternoon. The Rev. A. H. Laesch heard the vows.

The sleeves of the bride's sparkle velveray on white starched chiffon gown extended to points over her wrists, and small buttons extended down the back to the waistline.

The bride's mother wore blue with white accessories and groom's mother chose green. Both had shoulder corsages.

Mr. Dankemyer was graduated from the Marshfield High School in 1929 and is employed at the Greunke Dairy at Chili, where the couple will be at home upon their return from a week's wedding trip to northern Wisconsin.
