How it is shown: Complete page as supplied; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.
Keep in mind: Confirmed that the page names Nat Emmons Ligon and his bride, formerly Miss Zula Nash of Sapulpa, and says the quiet wedding was held 'yesterday' at the First Baptist church of Sapulpa (Rev. C. J. Conkwright); the article gives no calendar date, so no wedding day is stated here. It also says Mr. Ligon was born in Gloster, Mississippi, and is a University of Mississippi graduate. The tree's second record 'Zula Nash 1889-1979' is not tagged. The site's own metadata calls the paper The Tulsa Tribune; the masthead on the page is the authority.
