The Evening Star, May 26, 1858
A Wedding


Yesterday from noon until four p.m., there was a very large assemblage of carriages on C street, between 4 1/2 and 3d street. The cause was the marriage of Dr. Thomas Maury to Miss "Georgie", the eldest daughter of our well-known, esteemed, and respected fellow-citizen, Mr. George Parker; Dr. M. being the third son of the late ex-Mayor Maury. About two hundred guests were present at the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. Dr. Cummins. Many hundreds more attended shortly afterward, until the spacious reception room of Mr. Parker's residence were crowded to overflowing. The bridesmaids were Miss Lizzie Parker, Miss Alice Maury, Miss Sarah Franklin, Miss Smith (a step daughter of Mr. Luke Lea), Miss Abbot, of Georgetown, and Miss Ludlum, of New York; the groomsmen were Mr. John Maury, Doctor Hughes, Dr. Levick, Mr. John Franklin, Mr. Rossiter, and Dr. Trotter.

A long table was visible in one of the apartments decorated with some sixty or seventy valuable presents to the bride from relatives and friends of the two families thus united; costly, rich and rare, as appropriate for such an occasion. Of course, a magnificent entertainment was provided for the entertainment of his guests; for Mr. George D. Parker and his hospitable family are celebrated for the elegance, good taste, and profusion of their generous hospitality.

The happy pair accompanied by the entire bridal party, departed by the evening train for a trip North.
