The State of Illinois selected Normal as the site of the home in May 1867. The Illinois Soldiers' Orphans' Home (ISOH) opened its doors on June 17, 1869 with 180 children in residence and one main building. Mrs. Virginia C. Ohr, a widow of a Civil War veteran, served as the home's first superintendent. In 1979, the state closed ISSCS after 114 years in operation. - Wikipedia

From there the couple went to Oklahoma where the brides parents reside. This young couple have only been acquainted with each other about 4 weeks, but the young man proceeded to fall head over heels in love at first sight. It is rumored on the street among his friends, that the young lady was not so quick in setting her affections, and that Alonzo, with a pint of spiritus fermentum and a bottle of laudanum, threated to make a corpse of himself in about two minutes if she did not take him for better or worse. She took him, and the Crescent wishes them much happiness. [-Courtesy of Cathie Grant]
