• Notes

  I checked the courthouse records and found only Gladys Ruth listed in the birth records and it says; Book 2, page 283, Sac County Births Gladys Ruth McQuigg was born December 5,1916 in Schaller, Iowa to Grace Bettin and Willis E. McQuigg. There are other births of other children of theirs listed; Book 2, page 281 Clifford Leonard McQuigg was born September 17,1913 in Schaller, Iowa to Grace Bettin and Willis E. McQuigg. Book 3, page 139 Delayed Records Everett Willis McQuigg was born November 28,1909 to Willis McQuigg and Grace Bettin Book 4, page 186 Glenn Irwin or Irvin McQuigg born February 7,1939 in Eureka Township, Sac County, Iowa to Willis McQuigg and Grace Bettin. Death Records; Book 5, page 4, Sac County Courthouse Grace M. McQuigg, female, white, widowed, age 86 was born May 5,1885 in Germany to William Bettin and Bertha Rogge. Lived at Schaller, Iowa. Informant-Miss Betty McQuigg. Died February 2,1972 of a myocardial infarction. Buried in Schaller, Iowa Cemetery. There is an article in the Schaller Centennial Book about the family with photo. According to the article Willis and Grace had five children; 1. Everett Willis-born November 28,1909. he died May 7,1965. 2. James Lester-born March 17,1911. Married Helen Norlin. They had two children; Gary Lloyd born August 1,1945 and Donald Lester born November 16,1946. 3. Clifford Leonard born September 7,1913. Married Mildred Virginia Trimble October 17,1943. 4. Gladys Ruth (Betty) was born December 5,1915. She died December 5,1981 in Omaha. 5. Glenn Irwin born February 7,1921. Married Mavis Ann Thorton. Child-Glenn Wayne born NOvember 3,1950. Willis Edgar died December 10,1942 and Grace died February 2,1972 and buried in Schaller, Iowa Cemetery. There was nothing written about a twin. I also looked in Schaller Cemetery records and there isn't a burial for a child of the McQuigg either. Back to the article on them, Willis wife was Grace Margaret Bettin. If you would like copies of any of this let me know and I will send what I have.\ Marilyn
