BEN & CORA GARNER 5Oth ANNIVERSARY
My grandma (Reba) was great about clipping articles from the Lancaster paper and saving them but didn't bother to date anything (which can complicate things). Here is the write up of my maternal great grandparents, Ben & Cora Garner's 50th wedding anniversary in 1956. You will notice the article says April 14, but the previous marriage certificate says April 9.
Here's another newspaper account of the same thing:
This is the last known photo of the entire family together. Clyde would be dead by the end of the year.
Unless otherwise noted, all writing and photos are mine.
