Bloomington (Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana) Republican Progress, October 5, 1881, p. 3. Note: the book Monroe County Indiana Marriages 1818-1881, published by the Monroe County Historical Society, Bloomington, Indiana, 1995, does not have a marriage listed for Wm. D. Ward and Mary L. Eller. It does, however, list a marriage between the groom (page 129) Wm. D. Warren and the bride (page 177) Mary L. Eller on 25 September 1881 and recorded in Monroe County Marriage Book 6, page 578. The marriage of Mary L. (youngest daughter of Henry Eller, Esq.,) and Mr. Wm. D. Ward took place Sunday night a week, at the Cross Roads M. E. church. There was a large assemblage present, all friends and neighbors of the contracting parties. An infair took place at the residence of the hospitable parents of the bride, at which the guests were placed at tables literally groaning with supplies of choice viands. Henry Eller never forgets his friends, as we had reason to know on this occasion. Mr. Eller and wife now part with their sixth daughter, and are left without a family, although having successfully raised nine children.
