Wedding Wednesday: Dan STROESSER and Alice McGARRY

I had kind of lost track of the series of Wedding Wednesdays I had been pursuing, namely, the marriages of the STROESSER family of Omaha, Nebraska. Yet there are only two remaining: this one and the rather out-of-turn one that I will post next week.

Miss McGarry to Wed Omahan
   Mr. and Mrs. Leo McGarry, De Witt, Ia., have announced the approaching marriage of their daughter, Miss Alice, and Daniel George Stroesser, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Stroesser.
   The couple will be married October 1 at St. Patrick’s Church in Villa Nova, Ia.

Daniel George STROESSER, better known as Dan STROESSER, was a younger brother of my grandma, Rose Edith STROESSER.
