Hi everyone. It donned on me some time ago, that even though I have been researching my family genealogy for years, I had never sent for the second marriage document of my great grandfather Curt Scheibe. I received it yesterday, and I was surprised to find that Curt's mother's name was listed as something different than I already had. On his first marriage doucment, his mother's name was listed as Margaretha Gross. On the second one it was Margaret .... and the last name is what I am puzzling over. I was hoping someone would be kind enough to have a look at this link:

and tell me what they thought. Look under "Bridegroom", line 12. I thought origionally it might have been Wirdig? Windig? But then I looked on the SGGEE for surname equivalents, and perhaps it could be Wuerdig, Wurdig, or Weidig? Can anyone help me with this one? I suspect the different last names suggest that Margaret was married before. Which is really her maiden name I am not sure.
Thanks very much,
Wilma.
