  • Notes 
    • Thomas Co., GA - Marriage Notices from the "Southern Enterprise" of Wednesday, June 13, 1866: "Another Wedding -- The delicate samples of wedding cake left on our sanctum table, remind us that we had the pleasure at 8 1/2 o'clock p. m., on the 7th instant [the present month], of witnessing the nuptial ceremonies of Mr. Frank J. Winn and Miss Sallie R. Davies, which took place at the Presbyterian Church: 'For she is wise, if I can judge of her; And fair she is, if that mine eyes be true; And true she is, as she hath proved herself; And therefore like herself, wise, fair and true, Shall she be placed in my constant soul.' This, doubtless, was the soliloquy of the happy bridegroom. May the resolution never be shaken, and may they both live in sweetest harmony and great prosperity throughout life. 'The printer boys' were also kindly remembered, and while subscribing most heartily to editorial sentiment expressed above, indulge in the wish; that their several lots may be like 'An eve intensely beautiful; An eve, calm as the slumbers of a lovely girl, Dreaming of Hope.' Married On the 7th instant [present month], by the Rev. A. W. Clisby, at the Presbyterian Church, in Thomasville, Mr. Francis J. Winn and Miss Sallie R. Davies, all of Thomas County, Ga. May love, health and prosperity, go hand and hand for many years to come, and when life's duties are all o'er, may they find safe anchorage in that clime where every eye beams love and the flowers never fade."
