Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 34, Number 42, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 January 1902 — Names of “Golden Wedding” People Wanted. [ARTICLE]

Names of “Golden Wedding” People Wanted.

Another married couple who have lived together 50 years or more is Mr. and Mrs. George P. Ketchum, on the Pleasant Ridge road, east of town. In this connection it has been suggested, by one of Rensselaer’s oldest residents that a list of all married couples in Jasper Co., who have passed their golden weddings would be of great interest. The suggestion is a good one, and we therefore ask any of our readers who know of such couples to send in their names, time and place of marriage, and length of time living in Jasper county. Also any such couples who formerly lived in this county and now live elsewhere.
