Who was the bridal couple? The reverse of this Hillig photo was inscribed “Mrs. Matilda Wells,” nothing more. The archive of the Liberty Register, accessed through the Liberty Library website, reveals that Mrs. Wells was married in 1897 to Dr. Stephen W. Wells, then on the medical staff of Loomis Sanatorium. Shortly afterward they moved to the village of Liberty where Dr. Wells set up his private practice, and the Wellses raised three sons, one of whom was later elected to serve as town clerk. Matilda Wells was active in the American Legion Auxiliary and the S.P.C.A. and likely knew many people. Whose wedding this was is uncertain, but it is certainly one of the biggest wedding gatherings we have ever seen photographed on a porch.
