June Brides

Today is the wedding anniversary of my parents, Alda Louise Harris and Donald Glenn Kuhn.


Yes, Mom was a June bride ... and as I thought about that I got to wondering how many other June brides there were in my family.  I tend to categorize people as ancestors in the lines of my grandparents; i.e. surnames of Kuhn and Church on my Dad's side, Harris and Aston on Mom's. 

CHURCH FAMILY:
01 June 1850Rachel Reed and David Summers
12 June 1865Martha Ellen Matthew and Joseph Summers
20 June 1934Lenna Alice Church and Allen M. Bonar
23 June 1926Eula C. McMillan and Okey Anise Church
28 June 1922Carrie Vella Church and Forrest William Alley
 
HARRIS FAMILY:
01 June 1815Cleopatra Sherwin and Rufus Bartlett
02 June 1901Leota J. Howard and William Ollison Harris
02 June 1955Freda Fay Landers and Homer J. Stewart, Jr.
07 June 1911Virginia R. Genther and Pardon Smith Harris
08 June 1929Fay E. Harris and Curtis S. Blake
14 June 1894Olivia "Ollie" Harris and Charles Keller Stewart
18 June 1850Emeline S. Bartlett and John Rulong
22 June 1907Letha Harris and Frank Allen
28 June 1919Grace Iona Parks and Oren Elson Rulong
29 June 1860Isabella Littleton and John A. Harris
 
KUHN FAMILY:
15 June 1926Clara Edith Kuhn and Joseph Serenella

Interestingly, I found no June brides in the Aston line and only one in the Kuhn line other than Mom and Dad.  In the interest of privacy, this list does not include couples in my records who are still living - if they had been included, there would have been Astons and more Kuhns.
