We finally opened wedding invitations from the 1930's & 1940's!

I know it is a little late, but we finally opened some wedding invitations our family received a few decades ago. The wedding of cousin Doug Jones and Loa Nelson occurred in 1940, so we have given the invitation to Doug's baby sister-Nadine Blackett. Doug ran one of the most popular doughnut production shops in Salt Lake and remember stopping at his State Street plant to watch the production line at work.....and "forced" to sample his goods! He knew he wasn't going to stay on the Juab County farm with brothers Harold and Ronald, as that wasn't his cup of tea. We will keep the other invitations to give to any family member that wishes them. We didn't know who Clinn and Edna are, but after posting this information, we were informed it appears to be Clinn Morgan and new wife-Edra Goble who became a Morgan on Oct. 1, 1941. It's a beautiful hand made invitation, and whoever can identify the real tree leaf can have the invitation!
