New paper account of their wedding:
Married, by Father Sullivan at the Catholic church in Lakenan Monday,
March 1st, Miss Gertie Bell to Mr. Dell Jarboe. Attendants Mr. Harry Buckman, Miss
Maude Saunders, Mr. Albert Vaughin and Miss Loretta Reid. Flower girls, Misses
Lucile Bowling and Leta Saunders.
See
a photo of Maude Saunders and Gertrude Bell. Maude would later marry the
best man listed here Harry Buckman. Leta was Maude's little sister and she
would later marry Harry's brother Joe Buckman.
Note to genealogists: The consensus of the Jarboe daughters is that
Gertrude was born in 1874 but her tombstone reads 1875. Josephine Jarboe says that
somehow at some point the date got changed and Gertrude was afraid that there would be
something wrong with insurance or whatever if it was corrected.
