Today's featured wedding invitation is to the wedding of Jenny Walsh and Belton O'Neal Sullivan. They were married on November 28th, 1893 in Jackson Tennessee. To date I've not found a family connection between the Walsh/Sullivan families to the Moran family so it's possible they were just some of the many friends. Should a family connection show itself later I'll update this information

The William Kirby Walsh Home, ca 1870's
Jackson TN. It's on the
National Register of Historic Homes. |
Jenny Walsh, the bride, was one of the daughters of
William Kirby Walsh of North Carolina and
Talitha Jane Anderson of Purdy, Tennessee. Her mother passed away in 1878 and two years later her father died. Since neither of her parents were alive to give her away in marriage her sister
Annette Walsh McClaran and her brother in law
Robert Smith McClaran had the honor.
Belton O'Neal Sullivan, the groom, was the son of
Dr. James Madison Sullivan of South Carolina and his second wife,
Elizabeth S. Vaughan Sullivan. The Sullivan's have a long and distinguished lineage and played a prominent role in the history of
South Carolina.
Jenny and Belton were blessed with several children: Annette, Belton Jr., Marion, and
William.
