Hello, I recently determined that my grandparents were married on a Tuesday, and it appears my parents were also married on a Tuesday. I was somewhat surprised to find that they weren't married on the weekend. Curious as to the Group's knowledge about these non-weekend marriages. Was that the practice a hundred or so years ago? Any idea why? or why basically all marriages are on the weekend now? Thanks! Ken Pelzel (Pelzl, Rohr, Staab, Dreher) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
