M. CUNNINGHAM passed away this morning at 3:15 o’clock at her home, No. 215 Merchant avenue. She suffered from tuberculosis and Mr. CUNNINGHAM sent her and their family to San Diego, California, last June, in the hope that she might regain her health. About the holidays he joined them and they went to Albuquerque, New Mexico, in January, and while there the entire family was taken ill with influenza. All recovered but Mrs. CUNNINGHAM, who failed rapidly and the family brought her home the last week in February. Since then her condition has been critical. Mrs. CUNNINGHAM was thirty-nine years of age and was formerly Miss MIRIAM LOIS DeWOLFE. She Was born in this city, June 24, 1879, a daughter of SIMON E. and BELL WEBSTER DeWOLFE. She spent her entire life in Marion and graduated from the High school in the class of 1897. Later she attended the Lake Erie seminary at Painesville and was married to Mr. CUNNINGHAM in this city June 1, 1904. During her lifetime Mrs. CUNNINGHAM made many warm friendships, for she was well liked. Through her illness and death the family has had the most sincere sympathy of all who knew them, for in her death it takes not only the wife, but the mother from her four young children, MIRIAM MARSHALL, aged fourteen; NEWTON DeWOLF, aged eleven; THEODORE WEBSTER, aged nine, and ELIZABETH, aged four. With the husband and children survive the parents, who reside on east Center street; the grandmother, Mrs. L. C. WEBSTER, of east Center street, and the brothers and sisters, Mrs. GEORGE B. KNAPP, of this city; Mrs. RODNEY H. REESE, of Washington; DeLOS DeWOLFE of Akron, and BARNEY DeWOLFE, of Marion. Mrs. CUNNINGHAM had been a member of the First Presbyterian church since childhood and Dr. S. W. STECKEL will conduct the funeral services from the residence, Monday afternoon at 4 o’clock. The body will be placed in the Marion mausoleum.

All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm http://www.usgwarchives.net/oh/ohfiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Judy Woerner judyw0113@yahoo.com April 17, 2006, 2:36 am Lima Times Democrat, June 4, 1904 The Marion Star gives the following account of the Cunningham-DeWolfe nuptials: "The marriage of Mr. T. M. CUNNINGHAM, one of Marion’s best known young business men, and most popular in club and social circles and Miss MIRIAM DeWOLFE, the very charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. SIMON E. DeWOLFE, gave a notable inauguration to the June social season today. The ceremonial at the First Presbyterian church was very impressive and viewed by a large and striking Marion assemblage, while the after celebration at the DeWOLFE home was a brilliant and most delightful affair. The guests began to arrive shortly after 3 o’clock, the church auditorium being taxed to its utmost capacity at 3:30 o’clock, the hour set for the ceremony. The interim between the arrival of the guests and the hour for the wedding was made most agreeable by an organ musicale, Mrs. GRISELDA DAVIS DOMBAUGH rendering several delightful selections. The church was most tastefully decorated, green being the predominant color. Promptly at 3:30 o’clock, Mrs. DOMBAUGH played the introductory strains of the Lohengrin bridal chorus, the ushers; Miss BESS CANTWELL and Miss GERTRUDE STRONG, of Kenton; Miss LUCILE ANDERSON, of Mansfield, Misses JOSEPHINE JOHNSTON, ELIZABETH THOMPSON, GAIL HAMILTON, ETHEL AND LYDIA CUNNINGHAM, Miss GENEVIEVE HUMMER, RHODA LEE, MABEL RAFFENSPERGER and DELILAH BARKER, singing the chorus entered respectively from the north and west doors, marching down the side aisles, taking their station in the choir loft directly in front of the organ. The young ladies, charmingly attired in white gowns and wearing large picture hats, made a most attractive setting. Rev. L. C. WEBSTER and DR. FRANK GRANSTAFF, entering from the extreme west aisle, took their places in the pulpit. Misses EDNA and LUCILLE DeWOLFE, sisters of the bride, as bridesmaids, looking very pretty in gowns of white French organdie, sparsely touched with pink rosebud figures and trimmed with white satin ribbon, made their entrance from the north side. Mr. L. C. CUNNINGHAM, of Findlay, a cousin of the groom, and Mr. DeLOS DeWOLFE, a brother of the bride, as groomsmen, entering from the west side proceeded down the west aisle, where they joined the bridesmaids, who proceeded the flower-bearers, CLEMENTINE RITCHIE, of Wyoming, Ohio, HARRIET BUTCHER and ROBERT UHLER, who came down the north aisle. The groom and his best man, Mr. FRANK BAXTER, of Lima, mounted the rostrum, where they were joined by the maid of honor, Miss ELOISE SARGENT, most becomingly attired in a costume of white crepe-de-chine, trimmed with Point de Venice, carrying a large bouquet of white carnations, and the bride on the arm of her father, Mr. SIMON E. DeWOLFE. Miss DeWOLFE was very beautiful in a wedding gown of white messaline satin, with rose point lace trimmings. She carried a shower bouquet of bride’s roses and lilies of the valley. Rev. Mr. WEBSTER spoke the Methodist ring ceremony – indeed an impressive one – which ????? the troth of the couple, being assisted by Dr. FRANK GRANSTAFF. A happy coincidence was that in performing this ceremony on this date, Mr. WEBSTER, grandfather of the bride, commemorated the forty-eighth anniversary of his marriage. Leaving the altar and advancing up the west aisle, the party made its exit from the southeast door of the church. Immediately after the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. DeWOLFE gave a reception at their home on east Center street to the bridal party and two hundred invited guests. After viewing the many beautiful gifts and extending their congratulations, the guests were served with a buffet luncheon, Mesdames FRANK GRANSTAFF, S. E. BARLOW, MARTHA HODDER, A. W. SHAW, GERTRUDE KLING, W. C. BUTCHER, H. W. CULBERTSON, EDWARD SEFFNER, PAULINE HUMMER and MARY LIPPINCOTT assisting. At the house, pink and green predominated in the decorations. The bridal table in the dining room was very pretty, white, pink and green being the color theme. The bridal luncheon was served by Mrs. E. K. UHLER and Mrs. E. E. POWERS. Little Miss FANNIE CULBERTSON distributed the favors – white, pink and green ribbon bows. Mr. and Mrs. CUNNINGHAM will leave this evening for St. Louis for a three weeks visit at the exposition. On their return they will take up their residence on Lafayette street. The wife has announced several Wednesdays “at home.” Among the out-of-town guests were Rev. and Mrs. L. C. WEBSTER, Mrs. JACOB FORBING, Mrs. FANNIE GARRETSON, Misses GERTRUDE STRONG, BESS and MAYME CANTWELL, ELOISE SORGEN, EDNA WISE, MARGARET SPOUSLER and FLORENCE HOLLAND, of Kenton; Mrs. HOLLAND WEBSTER, of Toledo; Dr. and Mrs. FRANK FELIX, of Cleveland; Mrs. E.
