Family rumor:
Wilbert served in the military or at least was suppose to in 1918. He did not want to serve in the military because of WWI. He hid in a church belfry to avoid authorities. There is probably truth to this because Wilbert can be found in the 1910 and 1930's United States censuses but not in the 1920 census. This could imply that he was still afriad to be found by military authorities.
