21 May 1898 |
Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States [2] |
Address: Grace Church, Diocese of Pennsylvania |
- They were married by Assistant Minister Rev. Charles Knowles Penney at the Hanover Hotel, Arch and 12th Streets, Philadelphia. Penney was a minister at Grace Church, a Protestant Episcopal church at 226 E. Gowen Ave. in Philadelphia. This hotel was easily accessible to the train stations for Mary coming from Milton, and Harry coming from Camp Alger, VA.
Mary was 5 months pregnant with Anna at the time of their marriage. Both families were outraged that Harry did not want to marry her, and pressured him into doing the right thing. The minister was probably selected by Mary's mother, Anna Louisa (Supplee) Cadwallader, who was Episcopalian.
