FREDA KREISSIG/WILLIAM A. SCHLINSOG MARRIAGE

The wedding of Wm. A. Schlinsog and Miss Freda, daughter of Mrs. Julius Kreissig, which occurred at the home of the bride April 3, 1907, was one of the biggest and happiest social events the Braun Settlement (Clark County) has experienced. The bride, who was gowned in dark blue, was attended by Miss Emma Schlinsog of Chicago and Miss Martha Schlinsog of Granton, as maids, while Messrs. Fred Schlinsog and Adolph Geisler acted as best men. Rev. J. Schmalz of the settlement officiated. An elaborate supper followed the ceremony, that fully sustained the reputation of the settlement for its generous hospitality, and the evening devoted to merriment in general.

Among the hundred and fifty guest present were Mrs. Amelia Schlinsog, mother of the groom, and Albert and Maggie Schlinsog, his cousins, of Granton Mrs. Annie Johnson of Eau Claire, Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Biel of Lynn, and Henry, Herman and Charles Schlinsog of Chicago.

Mr. and Mrs. Schlinsog are at home to their friends at the Kreissig farm.
