    Notes 
    • In the 1940 census, shown as age 18, she was living with her mother and step-father and half-siblings in Pinconning Twp, Bay County, Michigan. She worked 60 hours per week as a housekeeper in a private home (probably the one that she was living in).

      At the time of her marriage to Leo, she was 18 years old and lived in Pinconning.

      A Mrs. Gerald M. Wedell was a model in a local fashion show in Glendale, California, in July of 1965.

      One family tree has her birth as 13 Aug 1922 in Pinconning. (If that’s true, her father was not Arthur Rasmussen.) That family tree shows Arthur as dying in Detroit in August of 1921. It shows Edna Mae Rasmussen Mayer dying in Mesa, Arizona, in 1988.

      SSDI has an Edna M Wedell, b. 13 Aug 1921, d. 26 Apr 1989, last residence Tucson. Her SS# had been issued in Michigan before 1951. That Edna Mae Wedell is buried in Evergreen Memorial Park, Tucson.

      Her obit in the Arizona Daily Star: WEDELL, Edna Mae, 67, formerly of Tucson, passed away April 26, 1989, in Mesa, Arizona.
