Dubuque Herald –Jan. 4, 1878

George Koch, saloon keeper, head of Julien Avenue, took a wife yesterday, uniting himself in marriage to Louisa Peters, a young lady of Cassville, who has lived in Mr. Cummins’ family five years, and is very highly spoken of by her late employer and others. George owns the premises he occupies, making the last payment thereon Wednesday night. He is likewise steady and industrious – a couple well matched. They hid away, on yesterday’s train, to bill and coo in Cassville.
