2654 Gustave was the son of Fred W and Maria (Mary) Obenland Preiss. He was born in Elgin, Illinois on Feb. 20, 1900. Gustave filled out his WWI Draft Registration card on Sept. 12, 1918. He was living at 215 Hill Ave. in Elgin at the time. Gustave worked as a clerk for Ackerman Brothers, at 164 Milwaukee, in Elgin. His draft registration said that Gustave was of medium height and build, with blue eyes and brown hair. The 1920 Census was taken on January 6th. Gustave was living with his parents at the time. He would die just a month later. Gustave died of a ruptured appendix, as per one of his nieces. The date was Sept. 15, 1920. He was only 20 years old. His Illinois State Death Certificate is #0040634 Preiss, Gustave Anton (I1049)
 
2655 Gustave was the son of German immigrants Karl "Charles" Obenland and his wife, Friedericka Paulina Bernecker. Gustave had three sisters, Julia, Louisa and Frieda. He also had one brother, Charles.

Gustave was born on July 21, 1879 in Brooklyn, New York. His father worked in a brewery and his mother took care of their home and family.

On August 23, 1902, Gustave married Jennie Belle Strachan in King County, New York. (note: Strachan is pronounced Strawn.) Their Marriage Certificate is #5063. The couple had two children, a son named George born on December 22, 1902 and a daughter, Doris, born on August 4, 1915. Both children were born in Brooklyn.

The 1910 Census shows the family living in Brooklyn. Gustave was 31, Jennie was 29 and George was 7 years old. Gustave was working as a house painter.

Gustave was the contracting painter for the Brooklyn Heights Railroad. He also did side jobs, including painting the Brighton Beach Hotel and either Pimlico or Belmont Racetrack, among other things. The newspaper, The Brooklyn Eagle printed an article about Gustave's painting in their April 20, 1900 issue, which I've included in this memorial.

According to his granddaughter, Gustave also owned a tavern on Neptune Ave. in Coney Island. There is an article in the Brooklyn Eagle where the tavern is mentioned. The article is about local candidates campaigning in the neighborhood. I've also included an excerpt from that article in this memorial.

I have also found newspaper articles that mention Gustave as being a member of the Silver Star Social Club in Coney Island.

On April 23, 1918, Gustave was admitted to the Brooklyn State Hospital. This information is on his death certificate.

Gustave registered for the draft of WWI on September 12, 1918. His draft card says that he was disqualified from the draft due to "mental disease." At the time, Gustave was a patient at the Brooklyn State Hospital. On his draft card, Gustave was described as tall, stout, with brown hair and eyes.

In the 1920 Census, Gustave was still a patient in the same hospital. He continued as an inpatient there until he passed away. As per his death certificate, which I have included in this memorial, Gustave died at the Brooklyn State Hospital in Brooklyn, Kings County, New York. His death certificate in that county is #9627. His death certificate says that he died from pneumonia, with "general paralysis of the insane." (Whatever THAT means.)

According to his death certificate, Gustave was buried on April 8, 1920 in the Evergreens Cemetery. The online records of the cemetery have a gap, which Gustave's death date falls into, so the plot number for Gustave was given to me by a clerk at The Evergreens Cemetery office.

2682 Harold Obenland was born in Birmingham, Alabama on July 3, 1905. His parents were Gustave Franklin Obenland and Anna Veronica Malarkey. (Also spelled at times Malarky, Mullarkey, etc.) Anna's sister, Lauretta Malarkey (Laura) was Harold's Godmother.

Harold had a child out-of-wedlock, Donald Lee Obenland, who was born July 15, 1925 in Oakland, California. The mother's name was Mary Jane Flaugher, as per the birth certificate. For 30 years, Harold's daughter, Cecilia, has searched for Donald. Please see his memorial for Donald's story.

Harold married Mildred Lovena Whaley Smalley on March 24, 1935. They later divorced.

On June 30, 1940, he married Geraldine Cecilia Huston, from Los Angeles. They were married in Yuma, AZ. Two children were born to them: Michael Edwin Obenland (11/19/1947) and Cecilia Ann Obenland (4/23/1949). Harold and Geraldine later divorced, which was final on March 3, 1953. However, they had been living apart for some time prior to that.

On Oct. 23, 1954, Harold married Dorothy Fern Watson in Lakewood, California. They had one child, Laurie Lynn Obenland, born in 1956. Their divorce was final in either 1958 or 1959.

Harold went to work in 1957 for North American Aviation, Inc in their Autonetics Division. On June 14, 1957 he completed a "Department ofDefense Personnel Security Questionaire." (Form DD48) He also signed Form DD48-1, "Certificate of Nonaffiliation with Certain Organizations." Listed on this form were more than a page (in small print!), listing organizations the Attorney General had "designated has having interests in conflict with those of the United States." This questionaire also states, "Security classification of materials or information employee will have access to: SECRET."

The DD 48 says, "Security classification of materials or information employee will have access to: SECRET" and "Contract number under which the employee is to be cleared: NAVAHO AF-33 (600) - 28469." I couldn't find much about this contract on the internet. What I did find was that it pertained to "Guided Missile Project MX-770, worked on by North American Aviation, Missile Development Division in Downey, CA in the mid to late 1950's." However, Wikipedia states, "Officially, the program was canceled on 13 July 1957, after the first four launches ended in failure. In reality the program was obsolete by mid-1957 as the first Atlas ICBM began flight tests in June and the Jupiter and Thor IRBMs were showing great promise. These ballistic missiles however would not have been possible without the liquid fuel rocket engine developments accomplished in the Navaho program. The launch of the Soviet Satellite Sputnik in October 1957 only finished Navaho as the Air Force shifted its research money into ICBMs. But the technologies developed for the Navaho were reused in 1957 for the development of the AGM-28 Hound Dog, a nuclear cruise missile which entered in production in 1959."

However, a book, "US Air Force Tatical Missiles, 1949-1969" by George Mindling and Robert Bolton, states on pages 57-58 that the MX-770 project produced the SM-64 Navajo Missile. I don't know for how long it was in use. I do know that Harold worked for North American Aviation until his retirement, which was probably about 1970.

Harold's last wife was Myrtle Ann Thompson. They were married in 1959. Their marriage announcement was in the Los Angeles Times on Dec. 13, 1959. They were still married and living in Weldon, CA when Harold died.

He was first buried in Kern River Valley Cemetery. Later, Myrtle had him moved to Holy Cross Cemetery where his mother and Aunts are buried. I don't know why Myrtle did that...maybe so she and her last husband could be buried together.

Harold was a jeweler like his father for a time and even owned a store on Baldwin Ave. in Arcadia, CA while married to Geraldine. Later, he worked for North American Aviation, in Long Beach, CA. Harold was an avid camper and fisherman and spent many vacations in the Sierra Nevada mountains. And yes, he was a ladies man! His cousin Mary called him a "Vagabond Lover."

NOTE for Oct 11, 2012: I've finally uncovered Marion Flaugher and her son, Donald's stories. I'm not too keen about my Dad right now. I'm disgusted that he was 20 and got a 16 year old girl pregnant. Did he know about the pregnancy? Did Marion tell him? I wish I knew.

NOTE: In August, 1961, Harold filed for divorce from Myrtle, but they later reconciled. (The Independent; Long Beach, CA, page 54, column 3).

2699 Helen was the daughter of Frank Frodel Antle and his wife, Fern. Fern's maiden name is unknown at this time. The 1930 Census shows the family living at 624 Santa Fe St., in Atchison. They owned the home, which at that time had a value of $2,800. The home still stands today. County records show that it was built in 1930, so the Antles were probably the first owners of the property. It has four rooms, with two bedrooms and one bath in 1,068 square feet. Helen had two sisters, Virginia and Alice and two brothers, Frank Jr. and John. Occording to the Census record, their father was a janitor for a theater. After high school, Helen attended Atchison Business College. On March 29, 1946, the Atchison Daily Globe announced the engagement of Helen Jean Antle to Jack Irvin Truttman. Helen's Bridal Shower was also written up in the same newspaper on April 17, 1946. Helen and Jack were married on April 27, 1946. The wedding took place at St. Benedict's Church in Atchison at 10 AM. The Reverend Albert Haverkamp, OSB, officiated. Their marriage was also written up in the Atchison Daily Globe, in the April 29, 1946 edition. The couple had no children. Helen passed away on February 7, 2000 in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. Her husband Jack scattered her ashes in the water in front of their condo. Antle, Helen Jean (I1354)
