Victoria Hunt tells this story about the wedding. She said her mother remembers how they told of Louanna's wedding day. They forgot Uncle Doc's collar and someone had to ride twenty miles round trip to get it. People were getting "antsy" waiting. Grandmother Mariah went to the mantle and turned the hands on the clock back an hour saying that "now we're getting married on my time!" (Hunt, Victoria, e-mail 25 May 2002, 11:33 PM)

Shared note

He was born on Wednesday. Kay Nance Linn says he died in 1957. This needs to be checked. She also says that he was born 30 Oct 1870.
W. A. Alexander led the singing for the Pioneer Pageant of 1956. Was this him or maybe his son? (Llano Gem of the Hill Country A History of Llano County, Texas, by Wilburn Oatman, Pioneer Book Publisher, Inc., Herford, Texas 79045, 1970, pps. 15 9 and 160.) Was this the same person?
