Corbett, Mr./Mrs. Lester (20 July 1933)

William Creed of Unity was in Neillsville Saturday and incidentally mentioned a visit his wife and he recently received from her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Lester Corbett of Glenbulah. Mr. and Mrs. Corbett are a most remarkable old couple; he is 90 years old and his wife is 86. Both are still active and can read without glasses. Two years ago Mr. Corbett took a trip in an aeroplane.

They have been married 67 years and are thought to be the oldest married couple in the state. Mr. Corbett is a Civil War veteran; he was a member of the 14th Wisconsin Infantry.
