Another Janson Wedding

The Minnesota Official Marriage System,  with the silly miss-leading acronym MOMS, is an online index of marriages recorded in the state from each counties' earliest almost to the present ("excludes this month").  When Sue sent these photos, I didn't connect them to each other, but look closer.  It must be the wedding of Elizabeth Janson to Alois Brucher, on June 23, 1928, in Hennepin county.  Looks to me like Sophie was her sisters' bridesmaid.  The groomsman looks familiar too, but ?

The wedding party of Elizabeth Janson and Al Brucher--
Attendants were Catherine Janson and Larry Daniel.
I like Elizabeth because she obviously didn't worry about 1920s wedding 'traditions' like big bouquets or fussy veils.  Theirs was a thoroughly lovely small wedding with only the required photos.  I bet she was like that all her life.

  1. Stumbled across this site quite by accident. Not sure if still followed or active but worth a shot. The wedding picture of Elizabeth Janson and Alois Brucher caught my eye. Elizabeth was my grandmother. Her daughter Mary Ann is my mom. Would like to hear from any other family out there.
