Brother Joe just sent us this piece:


This is genuine Turnbow news, circa l891 Joe Felin, author.

The attached was found today while browsing at the Springfield-Greene County Library.

It may not be legible so I am retyping it. The copy I have is very clear: The italics have been added.

Page 242 "Groom: Geovain Fellin of Marshfield, Webster Co, MO. Age: over 21
Bride: Catharine Lafoe of Norfthview, Webster Co., MO. Age: under 18
Married: Apr. 6, l891 at Springfield, Greene Co. Comments: Index says Geovania consent of father; Edward Lafoe."

Book 4
1887-1894

This couple who wed in 1891 were our father's mother and father, aka our paternal grandparents. Thanks for finding that info, Joe. Very interesting.
