Charles had never married but a widow of a preacher lived just down the road from him and was always asking Charles to fix something for her. She would bring him a pie or a cake pretty regular and he liked that and liked her cooking so he asked her to marry him. After the wedding Charles said that all she wanted to do was lie up in the bed, smoke cigarette and read “Love Story” magazines. He said he never got a pie or cake after the wedding. So he sent her back home and got a divorce. We have never been told her name

 

In his young years Charles fathered a child, in Bethany Illinois by Emma Bentz. Emma is the daughter of John and Hannah Bentz and the sister of Lula Pearl Bentz Pesch, the wife of Frank Nelson Pesch.When it became known that Emma was pregnant she was asked (told) to leave home. Nelson and Lula let her stay at their house until after the baby was born. After the bay was born, Emma’s mother, Hannah, asked Nelson if she could come to see the baby and he told it would be OK but warned her that if she started anything she would have to leave. The day she came to see Emma and the baby Nelson met her at the lane and stayed with her until she left just to make sure she honored her agreement. Hannah was also Nelson’s mother in law. I am told that Emma died a few years later and his grandmother Bentz raised him.  Charles and Emma's child's name is Dale.
