The 1920 Census for St. Louis lists a sister Margaret H-something who was 17 and single. This does not compute. Albert's mother surely did not have another child after she was 50, and the last name does not make sense. This schedule suggests that he was already a widower, but in 1930 he had a wife Estelle and the same two daughters--and a mother-in-law in the home. Maybe Margaret was actually his sister-in-law. In 1930 he was a chauffeur for the school board. They paid $50/month in rent.

Meyer Caroline E. [Female] b. JUN 1870 Illinois - d. 1942

Known as Carrie. Her place of birth is given as Iowa in some Censuses but Illinois in later ones. I lean toward the latter though her older sisters are consistently reported as being born in Lyons, Clinton County, Iowa. Where she lived immediately after her mother's death is not known though by 1895 she was living with her sister and brother-in-law, Emma and Theodore Riedesel.

Arthur J. Riedesel was born in the small town of Brule, Nebraska where his father was in the farm implement business. In 1934 the family moved down the road to the larger town of Ogallala. Arthur graduated from high school there though worked and did further study for a year before enrolling in Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln. After two years, he transferred to the School of Journalism at the University of Missouri in Columbia. He was a member of Phi Kappa Psi fraternity there and continued to sing with the Men's Glee Club as he had at Wesleyan.

Drafted into the army in 1942, he rose to the rank of Technical Sergeant, serving in the 115th Station Hospital. The unit was based in England though did further duty in occupied Germany. Arthur eventually wrote a history of the unit that was published in 1992.

Returning to civilian life, he completed his Bachelor of Journalism degree and a Masters degree in English history at Missouri. He and Ruth were married in 1946. In 1947 the young couple moved to Loup City, Nebraska, where he was a partner in the Sherman County Times newspaper and their two sons were born. In 1954 they moved to York, Nebraska where Arthur published the York Republican newspaper. Their daughter was born in York. The newspaper closed in the summer of 1955. Early that fall, they settled in Ashland, Nebraska, where he took over the Ashland Gazette which he published until 1986, the longest tenure of any editor in the paper's history. Arthur was active in the Nebraska Press Association, served as its President in 1979-1980, and wrote a history of that organization in 1973. He was a volunteer organist in the Methodist churches to which they belonged and a member of the Masonic Lodge.

The couple moved to a retirement facility in Lincoln in 2007. He died in a hospice facility in Lincoln after a short illness.
