    1. [TNGIBSON] Rutherford Register Marriage and Death Notice
    2. Alice King
    3. Hello Vicki and Listers, Following is a marriage report for SMITH-DRAPER appearing in the Friday, October 14, 1921 Rutherford Register. The marriage report was excerpted from The Wheeler County Texan because the marriage took place in Texas, but they came to Rutherford to live because the groom was originally from Rutherford. SMITH-DRAPER "In the presence of only a few intimate friends, SHIRLEY DRAPER, formerly of this place, but now of RUTHERFORD, Tennessee, and Miss JOSEPHINE SMITH of this city were united in the holy bonds of wedlock at WELLINGTON last Friday evening, Rev. Huckaby, pastor of the Methodist church at Wellington, officiating. The groom was for several months a book-keeper at the Frank Wofford store at this place, but returned to his old home in Tennessee last summer. During his short stay here he made many warm friends. He is a very able and energetic young business man and a valuable asset to any town. The bride is a daughter of Mrs. W. B. SMITH of this place, and has resided here all her life. She was one of the most popular girls of the town, and was a member of the graduating class of 1920 of the Shamrock high school. For the past several months she has acted in the capacity of assistant post master at the local post office. The estimable young couple left Sunday night for Rutherford, Tenn., where they will make their permanent home. The best wishes of their many friends will accompany them.--THE WHEELER COUNTY TEXAN.
