Potts, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd (55th - 19 February 1969)

Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Potts of Neillsville celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary February 19 by entertaining relatives and friends.

Mr. and Mrs. Potts were married February 19, 1914, at the home of her grandparents in Belle Plaine, Iowa.

They farmed for six years in northern Iowa, moving to Clark County in 1920. They located on a farm 10 miles north of Neillsville, which they operated until 1944, when they moved to their present home in Neillsville. After moving to the city Mr. Potts worked for the Clark County Soil Conservation Department for 15 years.

Two classmates, who were attendants at the wedding in 1914 and who are still living in Iowa, were unable to attend the 55th anniversary.

Mr. and Mrs. Potts celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in 1964, in Belle Plaine at an event which was attended by over 100 people.
