Kreissig, Ella (22 APR 1939)

An ankle-length gown of white satin and lace was worn by Miss Ella Kreissig, town of Warner (Clark Co., Wis.), daughter of Ernest Kreissig, Greenwood, for her marriage to Harry Welch, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Welch, Auburndale, which took place on April 22 in the Presbyterian manse at Arpin. The Rev. Charles H. Evans read the nuptial service at 2 p.m.

The bride’s veil was held in place by a gardenia headdress, and she wore a corsage of sweet peas.

Thomas Welch attended the bridegroom as best man, and Earl Welch as groomsman.

Immediate relatives were entertained at a wedding supper and a reception was held for 30 guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Mews.
