Narrative

Grace's husband, John Theodore Wrocklage Jr., was a widower at the time of their marriage in late 1910; he had previously married in late 1903 in Allen Cty, Ohio, though little information is available about his first wife. Her name on the indexed marriage record is given as Ottitia Metzer, with no vital dates or parents' names given. The original record is not part of the index, so I cannot confirm the spelling of either of her names, and I have not managed to find any highly likely matches in the index of the 1900 US Census for Delphos and the surrounding area.

I have not found any death record for his first wife, nor any birth or death records for anyone in later years naming John and his first wife as their parents, so I would presume that he had no surviving children from his first marriage.
