Summary

The November 1974 Beaver Beacon corrects a Shumsky–Grant wedding notice from the previous issue: the bride’s great-grandparents were Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Gallagher Sr., not Mr. and Mrs. James Gallagher Sr.

Evidence and limits

This record preserves the correction without creating an unsupported wedding, bride, groom, or complete Gallagher genealogy. The issue containing the original notice is not held in the current archive batch.

Sources

  1. Corrects the previous issue’s claim that the bride was the great-granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Gallagher Sr.; the correction says the correct great-grandparents were Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Gallagher Sr. The previous issue and the wedding couple are not held in the current archive batch, so no person or wedding identity is reconstructed from this correction alone.

  2. The held eight-page issue scan is paired with the OCR source and confirms the published notice or report; it does not expand the source-specific identity, event, or outcome claims.
