Offered here is an original 1881 handwritten wedding invitation with matching envelope, and the piece measures approximately 3.5 x 4 inches. It is a charming small-format Victorian paper item, written in elegant script and mailed with a green 3-cent George Washington stamp bearing a Logan, Ohio postmark.
The invitation announces the marriage of MARY J. ROCHESTER and GEORGE A. TENNEY, set for December 27, 1881, at the Presbyterian Church in Logan. A handwritten personal note inside adds warmth and immediacy, turning this from a simple formal invitation into a genuine family-associated keepsake with strong genealogical appeal.
This item is the first listing from a Clara Milford, née TENNEY, archive, with additional related material from the same family group to be offered separately. As the opening piece in that archive, it carries added value for collectors interested in the TENNEY family line, Ohio connections, wedding ephemera, and 19th-century manuscript material.
