Maria is from original undocumented source and may be a middle name or wrong entirely.
The Dunn County News, Thursday July 1, 1909 page 7 from front:
"... Minnie and Beth Koberstein of Glenwood were the guests of Miss Pearl Blood, Friday. ..."As a theory it is possible Beth is Anne Elizabeth (aka Beth) Koberstein daughter of Kasper Koberstein, thus Minnie the sister in law to Pearl Blood and her cousin Anne Elizabeth just visited just 2 days after she married her Minnie's brother George Rudolph on 30 June, 1909. Why the newspaper article refered to "Miss Pearl Blood", inferring that she was not married is unknown.
