    2. April 26th, 1917 Unknown newspaper (Genesee/Wyoming Co.) HOHN-HAWKINS Pretty wedding at the BRAINARD Homestead at Alexander Alexander, April 26. A pretty wedding was solemnized at the BRAINARD homestead at 10:30 a.m. yesterday, when Arthur P. HOHN and Miss Sarah C. HAWKINS, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ira HAWKINS, were united in marriage by the Rev. John WOOTTON, pastor of the M. E. Church. Both young people are residents of Alexander. They were attended by Miss Bertha KILLIAN and Henry C. HOHN, brother of the groom. The bride wore her going-away gown of blue cloth and a hand-embroidered, chiffon waist. She carried sweet peas. The bridesmaid was gowned in pale pink crepe de chine and carried sweet peas. Breakfast was served after the ceremony. The rooms were trimmed with asparagus ferns, roses, carnations and sweet peas. The dining room had ropes of smilax from the chandelier to the table held by bows of pink chiffon, and the centerpiece was a large bouquet of pink carnations. The young couple left for an extended trip. On their return they will make their home with the bride's father. On account of the poor health of the bride's mother, Mrs. Franc SMITH, who is a relative of the bride, entertained the wedding party. The bride received presents of cut glass, china and money. (Note: These are my paternal grandparents. This is the only time I have seen the surname spelled HOHN. We always spelled it HAHN. All other records have the HAHN spelling. I do not know who Mrs. Franc SMITH, relative of the bride, is, possibly a BRAINARD.) On the same day, August 25, 1917 HAHN-KILLIAN. Darien, Aug. 28-Henry Charles HAHN and Miss Bertha Anna KILLIAN of Alexander were married on Saturday evening at the parsonage by the Rev. George W. RICHMIRE.
