Erdman, Joyce E. #3 (15 SEP 1951)

St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, Green Grove, was the scene at 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 15, 1951, of the marriage of Miss Joyce Elaine Erdman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Erdman, Colby, to Harold James Degenhardt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Degenhardt, Loyal (Clark Co., Wis.).  Officiating at the nuptial services was the Rev.
