1034 | (Research):Possible husband Garnet Bridgeman #17995 unlinked file THE PEOPLE'S WEEKLY, MOONTA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1946. Matrimonial. BRIDGMAN - SPRY. On November 2thl, at the Moonta Methodist church, the marriage was solemnised of Jean, only daughter of Mr and Mrs Frank Spry, of Moonta, and Garnet, second son of Mrs Bridgman, also of Moonta. The Rev C.W.G. Smith officiated. As the bride entered the church with her father, the bridegroom and best man approached the altar from the opposite aisle. The bride wore a frock of midnight blue, with a draped bodice, trimmed with pale blue beading. A small blue hat, relieved with pink flowers and veiling, and light blue gloves to match, completed her outfit. She carried a lovely bouquet of pale pink roses, gladioli, and carnations, with touches of blue delphinium, and trailers of pink watsonias. The bride was attended by Miss Shirley Harris, wearing a powder blue frock, with a scalloped busk, and black accessories, and carrying a bouquet of pink rosebuds and gladioli. Both bride and bridesmaid wore pendants, gifts of the bridegroom. The bridegroom was attended by his brother-in-law, Mr Mervyn Marriott. Miss Janet Ferguson sang 'I'll walk beside you,' during the signing of the register. As the bridal party was leaving the church, horseshoes were hung on the bride's arm by Helen James and Jillian Marriott (niece of the groom). The bride's mother wore an embroidered suit of sage green, with black accessories, and a pink shoulder spray; and the bridegroom's mother chose a black and white frock, with a black sheer coat, matching hat, and a mauve shoulder spray. The church was beautifully decorated by the Girl Comrades, who led the singing during the service, and later formed a guard of honour at the church door. Several members of the Comradeship also assisted at the informal reception held in the church hall. Mr and Mrs Bridgman then left on a motoring trip through the South East. Last Monday night, 2nd inst, the accustomed peacefulness of North Moonta was suddenly shattered by a party of friends intent on giving Mr and Mrs Bridgman a really warm welcome back from their honeymoon. When they had recovered sufficiently from the shock of the tin kettling, Mr and Mrs Bridgman entertained guests with an impromptu social evening and supper.

1045 | (Research):Probably not this John Smith but interesting - Many historic buildings line the High Street (Linlithgow, West Lothian). On the south side ground levels rise and several historic wynds and closes, as found in Edinburgh still exist. The most prominent space is on axis with the road to the palace. This contains the Cross Well of 1807 (redesigned by James Haldane) which proclaims itself to be a replica of its 1628 predecessor. North of well stands the Town House of 1668 by the master mason John Smith. This replaced a previous hall or Tolbooth demolished by Oliver Cromwell's army in 1650. Much of its original interior was removed in a modernisation project of 1962. In June 1622 Katherine Rannald (alias Broun) from Kilpunt and her daughter Barbara Home (alias Winzet) were imprisoned in the Tolbooth on suspicion of witchcraft. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linlithgow Town House, 1668, John Smith No other town in Scotland possesses such an imposing civic stage-set. Oliver Cromwell had demolished Linlithgow's old tolbooth with its gigantic campanile in 1650, in an attempt to improve the palace's defences. This splendidly alert successor, one of the most sophisticated burgh buildings of its period in Scotland, is three-storey, with regular pedimented windows, and the six-stage balustraded tower to the rear, which once carried a belfry as at Stirling Tolbooth (see Stirling and the Trossachs in this series). Second-floor room within boasts original massive fireplaces with carved overmantels and decorative swags. In 1810, the stone steps were replaced by a delicate iron loggia. After a fire in 1847, much rebuilt by Thomas Brown. The 1857 clock, by MacKenzie & Moncur, was the first turret clock in Scotland to be constructed on the same principles as that in Westminster Palace. In 1907, William Scott replaced the iron loggia with the magnificent double staircase. Designs for conversion to community arts use prepared by Malcolm Fraser Architects, 2007. The 1905 Masonic Halls, Market Lane, William Scott, has a handsome classical door beneath a masonic emblem.
