On July 31, 1895 in West Seneca, New York, Frederick Boldt married Mary Katherine Kibler. She was the daughter of Michael Kibler & Monica "Fanny" Krause. Sadly, the marriage did not last and they were divorced by 1905. They had one son, Edwin Michael Boldt who was raised by Mary Kibler Boldt's sister Frances Kibler who was married to Victor Irr.

Disenheritance!
You know, I am not even sure that is a word. But I do wish I had not inherited my mom's migraines. Today is the first day this week that I have not woken up with one and hopefully, I won't go to bed with one. It sure makes blogging, researching, reading, sleeping, watching TV, and just plain old living difficult at times.
I also inherited my dad's build. He in turn, inherited it from his grandmother Bowman and his mother. Because, really, my grandma Percival looked like my dad in drag. In her middle years, that is. So I guess my dad inherited his looks from the Webb side of the family - as his grandmother was Elizabeth Webb.
Sometimes I wish I could modify my genes!

Last Weekend I Made a Breakthrough!
I did it. I had a breakthrough. Something I had hoped to accomplish for about two years. Unfortunately, it wasn't genealogical, but in the nature of home improvement. I tiled my backsplash. By myself. And used a chop saw. Well, a compound miter saw, although there was no mitering involved.
And I can cross it off my to-do list. Its one of the things that has been niggling at me since I saw these tiles on D-I-Y Network's I Want That! Actually, I started Thursday evening, finished Friday evening and put it back together on Saturday, after I recuperated.
The photos below were taken with my phone. I post these only because I am too lazy to upload the ones in my camera!
