On March 30, 1910, Will Knutz and Elvirta Graves made a life-long commitment to each other. They met while Will was working on a threshing crew, and Virta was helping to serve the hungry men.
50 years later, they celebrated a milestone anniversary. Their marriage would last nearly 56 years, until Will passed away in 1966.
Great photos! Man's grandparents were married in 1910 as well.
ReplyDelete*Someone* had a great idea with "Wedding Wednesday!"
ReplyDeleteThe wedding photograph makes me think of simpler, gentler times. Elvirta was a beautiful bride. She looks very gentle and confident. And they both look so happy on their anniversary.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy - she was a very hard working, gentle spirit. :)
