Melvin D. Sebren oo Bertha Louise Pearce

Marr source: Klaus, Terry, The Family Alwood, (Sacramento CA, T.K., June1991), pg 53 for fact of marr.

pg 56 - 'CEDAR GROVE NEWS SEPTEMBER 26, 1925 M.D. Sebren and Miss Louise Pearce were quietly married Saturday afternoon at 1:30 at the home of the bride, who lives just across the street from the First Baptist Church on Highland Avenue, Cedar Grove.'

26 September, 1925 IS a Saturday, but the article seems to refer to the wedding in the past tense. If the couple were married on the same day on which the article were published, would the article say the couple was married 'today?'

It is my hypothesis, therefore, that the couple was married on 19 Sep., 1925, the preceding Saturday. - D.A.Navorska - 28D1996
