MAY AND JUNE WEDDINGS.

New York, 1895

Eldert — Jones.

Mr. Abraham DeBevoise Eldert and Miss Estelle Gertrude Jones, daughter of Prof. J. W. Jones, of Hillside avenue, Jamaica, were married in the Reformed church on Tuesday evening, the Rev. Edgar J. Tilton performing the ceremony. The chancel was filled with palms and potted flowers. When the bridal party entered the church Miss Irene Brinckerhoff played the wedding march from Mendelssohn. The bride, who wore a gown of white silk and diamond ornaments, was given away by her father. The bridesmaid was Miss Minnie Johnson, and the best man Mr. Linton. The maids of honor were Miss Jennie A. Eldert and Miss Annie McGrauw. At the end of the ceremony a solo "Ave Maria," was sung by Mrs. Wilkes. As the bridal party left the church the organist played the wedding march from Lohengrin. The ushers were Messrs. George Durland, Jr., John Bergen, Richard Van Siclen and Alexander Carpenter.

There was a reception at the residence of the bride's parents. Among the many present were Mr. and Mrs. William F. Wyckoff, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Eldert, Mr. and Mrs. Bergen, Mr. and Mrs. Linton, Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Ryder, Mr. and Mrs. Cord Meyer, Mrs. Gertrude Stockholm, the Misses Louise and Sarah DeBevoise, Mr. and Mrs. Stetcher, Richard Van Siclen and Miss McGrauw. Among the many presents to the bride was a check for $500 from the groom's father. The wedding tour will include Niagara Falls and Montreal.

Note: The first mention of Richard Van Siclen was spelled just like that. The next time he's mentioned above his last name is spelled "Van Sicklen." I've had a few other articles in which the family name was spelled "Van Siclen."


Cameron — Baldwin.

Miss May T. Baldwin, only daughter of Henry W. Baldwin, and the Rev. Leroy Learned Cameron, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of St. Paul, Minn., were married in the Reformed Church at Flushing at noon of Tuesday. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. James Demarest, assisted by the Rev. Dr. J. Abbott French.
