LIZZIE ENGEBRETSON/OLAF KROGNESS MARRIAGE

 

 


 

The marriage of Mr. Olaf Krogness to Lizzie Engebretson, both living near Greenwood, Clark County, took place Wednesday evening, May 20th, 1914 at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Engebretson, living northeast of town. Miss Alice Dyre acted as bridesmaid and Mr. Joseph Krogness, a brother of the groom acted as best man. Rev. A. B. Dyre performed the ceremony.


Everything was fixed in a nice and pleasing manner. A very good lunch was served after the wedding. Only a few of the nearest relatives were invited. We all join in wishing this young couple a happy and prosperous journey through life.
