===Second Marriage===

−

<table><tr><td>Curtis married secondly in 1938 to Katharine Miller Leas<sup>[[#Footnotes 5|P]]</sup> (1917-2000), daughter of "prominent and wealthy" Mr. and Mrs. Donald Stewart Leas ~~of Haverford, Pennsylvania~~. They had four surviving children: Katharine, Mary, Stephen and James (b. 1948). From this point, I see no more mentions of Curtis spending time with his first two children, although he expresses regret that they could not attend his second wedding due to their being in school in faraway Seattle.

<table><tr><td>Curtis married secondly 15 Dec 1938 "in the bride's parents home" in Haverford, Pennsylvania to Katharine Miller Leas<sup>[[#Footnotes 5|P]]</sup> (1917-2000), daughter of "prominent and wealthy" Mr. and Mrs. Donald Stewart Leas. They had four surviving children: Katharine, Mary, Stephen and James (b. 1948). From this point, I see no more mentions of Curtis spending time with his first two children, although he expresses regret that they could not attend his second wedding due to their being in school in faraway Seattle.

By 1944 his son is being called "Curtis R Boettiger". Additionally, when "Sistie" got married in 1948, Curtis was not in attendence. (see [http://www.newspaperarchive.com/PdfViewerTags.aspx?img=68016218&currentResult=22&src=search&firstvisit=true ''San Antonio Light'', 8 Jul 1948, page 24]) It would appear likely because of this that there was some kind of strain in, or even severing of the relationship. This would have apparently happened sometime between 1939 and 1944. Possibly Curtis' second marriage was the trigger. When Curtis Jr got married, some newspapers reported that Curtis Sr has been invited but was unable to attend.</td><td>http://freepages.history.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wjhonson/Dall4.jpg<br>Curtis Dall and Katherine Leas Dec 1938</td></tr></table>
