FamilySearch. Illinois Marriages, 1912. |
The image above shows a marriage register for Anna A. O'Brien and Charles C. Stretch. The couple were married on Christmas Day, 1912 in Shelbyville, Illinois. Anna was a sister of my great-grandfather Harry O'Brien. I wrote about her life back in 2015, how she bought her own building and opened a millinery store. Anna regularly traveled to St. Louis and Chicago to keep up with the latest fashions and purchase goods for her business.
