Deatherage-Carter
Miss Glenda Carter, daughter of
Mrs. Carl Carter of
Friona, Texas and Bluford Deatherage of Pecan Gap, son
of Mr. J. F. Deatherage
were married Sunday evening in the home of Rev. J.
B. Ward minister of
the First Baptist Chursh at Hugo, Okla. The couple will
make their home in
Pecan Gap where Mr. Deatherage is employed. [My note.
Marriage laws were
more liberal in Oklahoma. Hugo was the easiest place to
"run away and get married".
My in-laws eloped to
Hugo in 1932 and were also married at the home of the
minister of the First
Baptist Church. The minister was Rev. Ernest Quick in
'32.]
