Marriages (March 26)

Palmer - Bailey
Bainbridge Republican, November 14, 1878
 
A wedding took place at the Guilford House on Wednesday of last week.  Miss Rosa Bailey, a sister of "Mine Host, John Baily," was married to Mr. James B. Palmer of Masonville [Delaware Co., NY], the Rev. W.D. Wilson officiating.  We wish them much joy and long and happy life.

Sackett - Ottman
Bainbridge Republican, January 30, 1879

Afton [Chenango Co., NY]:  Our worthy friend, O. Eugene Sackett, on the present month, led to the hymeneal alter the beautiful and accomplished Miss Mary E. Ottman, of Carlisle, Schoharie county.  "Gene" is one of our best young men, and he has found a bride in every way worthy of him.  May their life be a long and happy one.

Neff - Humphrey
Bainbridge Republican, January 30, 1879

Last Thursday afternoon there seemed to be an entire cessation of business at the carriage shop in this village.  After awhile Rev. E.T. Jacobs, of Afton, was seen to drive up to the residence of O.H. Humphrey, also Sunday Messrs. Neff and wives stopped at the same place.  Soon rumors commenced to circulate that Miss Mary Humphrey, daughter of the aforesaid carriage maker, would commit matrimony at 3 o'clock p.m., with Mr. Fletcher Neff. Said rumors were verified by Fletcher stepping over to the store and setting up the cigars to the boys the next morning.  The bride was very handsomely dressed and we can but say that Fletcher has made a wise choice.  May happiness ever follow in their footsteps, and may their joys be many and great and their troubles nothing but little ones..

She is said to be a prominent worker in church circles.  Plymouth has not had so much to talk about before since Joe Tracy captured the wild man.
