Vinton History Museum

July 2, 2021 by sbtate

The month of June is known to be a very popular wedding month. We decided to do a wedding display. The dresses belonged to Doris and Helen Kasey. They were both married on July 19, 1958. The original newspaper clipping is at the center bottom of the picture. The other newspaper clipping at the lower right corner of the picture is a clipping of their fiftieth anniversary in 2008. The stain glass window in the background came from the church they were married, Vinton Baptist Church. We were interviewed by the Vinton Messenger at the Vinton History Museum’s ice cream social on June 5. We were also included in the June 10 edition of the Vinton Messenger. We also celebrated our birthdays near the end of June. In conclusion the month of June has been a busy and eventful time at the Vinton History Museum.
