Blomquist, Esther (4 OCT 1911)

The wedding of Albert C. Peterson and Ester E. Blomquist, which was mentioned in last week’s Gleaner, was attended by a large number of relatives and friends, there being forty-five present. Those from away were Mrs. Isadore Jolivette and children and Miss Esther Jolivette of La Crosse, Mr. and Mrs. O.H.

The ceremony took place at eight o’clock Wednesday evening, October 4, 1911, Rev. W. T. Hendren being the officiating minister. The wedding march was played by Miss Ruth Noetzel. The bride was dressed in white silk and carried white roses. She was attended by Miss Grace Hotzfield.

The groom was attired in conventional black, and was attended by Charles Blomquist, the bride’s cousin.

After the ceremony the guests partook of a bounteous wedding supper.

The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Blomquist of Tioga. She is a young lady of excellent character and has a host of friends whose best wishes go with her in her new home. The groom is one of the leading citizens of the Town of Eaton, where he is now town clerk, an office he has held successfully for several years past. Mr. and Mrs. Peterson will make their home on the groom’s farm in the Town of Eaton. The Gleaner extends congratulations.
