Benjamin - Gilchrist marriage 1859

BENJAMIN, GILCHRIST

MARRIED. On the 5th inst., at McGregor, by the Rev. T.W. Wadsworth, Mr. Ina Benjamin, of Rockford, Ill., to Miss Julia, daughter of W.J. Gilchrist, Esq., of the former place.

We have the pleasure to acknowledge the receipt of a liberal supply of excellent cake on the above union. We object a little to parting with our girls, even to cheer the heart of a Rockford merchant, but as Mr. Benjamin became a subscriber to the TIMES a few hours in advance of the ceremony, we recognise him as a particular friend in McGregor interests, and our objections are waved. May all their anticipated pleasures be realized.

~Weekly North Iowa Times, Wednesday, January 12, 1859; pg 2
