On the stage

 

Evansville Journal. 24 Jan 1882.

Another article I had previously overlooked when searching for references to Agnes Atherton's career on the stage. The clipping above shows Agnes (listed as "Aggie") performing in Evansville, Indiana with Fred Day in January 1882. The couple were married in Indianapolis in October 1881. This indicates they performed on stage together at least in 1882.

News of the marriage between Agnes and Fred made it to the Springfield, Illinois newspaper the Daily Illinois State Register on 6 November 1881.

Daily Ill. State Register. 6 Nov 1881.

I am really hoping the marriage record and certificate from Marion County provides some interesting details about Agnes.
