Love these descriptions of weddings. The list of presents received provides an interesting view of popular items of the times. Imagine having to write all those thank you cards after the wedding. Could have been humiliating in the town if your gift happened to be missed by the reporter.
Epingle is a new word for me. Thanks for your footnote!
I had to run and look it up. It was new to me too Jill

I love reading through the list of presents. They definitely show the lifestyle or standing of those receiving them.
Wishing you were still using Wordpress. It took me a few attempts before I could access this post. Substack doesn't seem to like me.
That's bad Jill. A simple search should get you here. I'll leave a link on my comments to you. Thanks for trying more than once.
