8651 Married
John Q. Boner and Miss Lydia J. Cassity were quietly married in the Standard office at 5:30 o’clock p.m., Monday, Jan’y 8th, Judge S.M. Grigsby officiating.
This marriage is the consumation of a courtship of several years and the contracting parties have each proven for each other that faithfulness that insures a true union of hearts and lives.
The bride is a daughter of Peter Cassity, and is a lady of exceptional industry and frugality. She has lived in our city for years, working for her living, and by her womanly deportment has the respect of all who knew here. “Jack” Boner, the groom is also well known in our city. He is a big hearted, clever, well behaved young man, and will we think prove worthy of his bride.
The married couple left the same evening at 11 o’clock over the O.K. for South Bend, Wash., where “Jack’s” brother lives, and where they will make their future home.
The Republican extends its best wishes to the wedded couple and hopes for them a happy wedded life.

8695 Mary Ann Vawter was born December 11, 1836, in Jefferson County, Indiana, and died December 15, 1912, at Canton, Missouri. On March 12, 1857, she married in Rowan County, Kentucky, Peter Thompson Hedges, who was born January 29, 1831, in Fleming County, and died June 12, 1924, at Tilton, Illinois. He is buried at Canton, Missouri.

Peter Thompson Hedges was the fourth child of William Ribelin Hedges and Malinda Russell (Cassity) Hedges. During the Civil War he became Captain of Company G. of the 24th Kentucky Volunteer Infantry and served three years and nine months. He was invalided home with one finger shot off, buckshot in his neck and a “minie ball” in his right arm. In 1864, he moved with his family to Vermilion County, Illinois, near what is now Fithian. Here the family lived for thirty-one years. Captain Hedges than moved to Canton, Missouri, and bought a house on a hill overlooking the Mississippi River. The site of the house is now that of a boys’ dormitory of Culver-Stockton College, formerly called Christian University. . . .
When Mary Ann Vawter was about seven years old, her parents moved from Jefferson County, Indiana, to Harmony in Jennings County, Indiana. She was immersed September 5, 1848, “for the remission of sins and in so doing united with the Christian Church, worshiping at Liberty, Monroe Township, Jefferson County, Indiana.” The family lived in Jennings County only about two years. From a statement of Mary Ann herself, kept in a copy book as a sort of diary: “On the 7th of April, 1856, we took leave of our old acquaintances and our old home for Kentucky. We arrived at Maysville, Kentucky, on Tuesday the 8th. The next morning we went into the country where we spent a week. We then started for Rowan County. When we arrived at the place of our intended home, we found that the house as not ready and we had to go to a neighbor’s and stay till we could go into the house, which was the 23rd of April.” Later he wrote: “On the fourth Sunday in May, 1856, by letter, we united with the Christian congregation worshiping at Siloam, Triplett, Rowan County, Kentucky.”

After her marriage and during the Civil War she wrote; ”Find Grove, Rowan County, Kentucky, March 12, 1862. Five years of my married life have passed away. Oh, how sweetly and swiftly have the moments flown most of the time. But with the exception of a few short hours, I have been deprived of the companionship of my husband for five months. Las October, he left the side and the comforts of home to assist in protecting that Government under which we have lived so happily and prosperously. How hard the fate which takes him from me. But my trust is in the Almighty Father who does all things well.”
