John D. Clews, aged 102 and Mrs. Sarah H. Jennings, aged 100 years, were married in Franklin, Pa., last week. "Notwithstanding their advanced age," the dispatch says, "the couple are as vivacious as persons of forty." I have no connection to either Mr. Clews or Mrs. Jennings. This was just a news worthy article that made it in the Hays, KS newspaper back in 1899, and I thought someone back in Venango Co. would like to know this incident made the news in Hays, KS. I am originally from Knox, PA, but now live in Hays, KS, so when I find articles in the old newspapers that have to do with people back in PA, I like to share the inf.
