  Married: Rev. A. L. Fisher, of Benton Harbor, Michigan, performed the marriage ceremony and signed the marriage certificate. It is possible that this person was the groom's father, Albert L. Fisher, who was a pastor in the Methodist Church. Census (family): According to the 1930 federal enumeration, the household consisted of Wilson K. Fisher, age 35; a veteran of World War I and now a dentist; his wife, Mabel J. Fisher, age 40; and their three daughters: Patricia Fisher (age 7), Barbara J. Fisher (age 5), and Sally A. Fisher (age 1 year, 4 months). Also living in the home was Irene Bicker (age 25), a servant. Residence (family): In 1942, when registering for the military draft, Wilson gave his home address as 2602 Park Place, Evanston, Illinois.
