Wilcox Progressive Era, Thursday, September 22, 1904

Boykin -- McCreary.
  Evergreen, Sept. 14. - Wednesday an unusually pretty wedding occurred 
at the Baptist Church in Evergreen, the contracting parties being G. F. 
Boykin of Brewton and Miss Mamie McCreary of this city. The church was 
tastefully decorated with smilax, potted ferns and pink carnations, 
forming not a small part of the adornment. Promptly at three o'clock 
the bridal party arrived, when two beautiful solos were sung by Hon. W. 
C. Compton, and one by Miss Annie Dee Sampey. Then, to the beautiful 
strains of the wedding march, played by Miss Lucile Jay, the bride, 
handsomely gowned in a brown Louisine silk, carrying an arm shower 
bouquet of white carnations with plumosa, and leaning on the arm of her 
father, entered the right aisle, preceded by her maid-of-honor and 
sister, Miss Eva McCreary, dressed in champagne embroidered silk 
tissue, bearing a cluster bouquet of pink carnations, also the ushers, 
Mr. J. D. Lee of Brewton, and Mr. John Chapman of Georgiana, with Mr. 
Herbert Rankin of Brewton, and Clay McCreary, on the left aisle.
  At the altar, the bridal part was joined by the groom and his best 
man, Mr. A. C. Avinger of Georgiana.
  The simple, but impressive ceremony was performed by Rev. W. A. 
Taliaferro, of Greenville. Shortly afterward, the young couple left on 
their wedding tour to Asheville, N.C., and other points, and will make 
Georgiana their future home.
  As Miss Mamie McCreary, no one has been more popular.
  Mr. Boykin is well-known in Camden having visited his sisters and 
aunt, Mrs. D. S. Pritchett and Miss Nannie Boykin, and Mrs. J. Mc. Boyd 
and many other relatives, frequently.
