Notes
Marriage
A wedding of more than usual interest to Shreveport was that of Miss Helen Ethel Furr, youngest daughter of Dr. W. P. Furr, retired physician and planter of Jackson, Miss., and G. S. Cheesman, prominent real estate man of Shreveport, which took place Thursday at 2 o’clock in the Methodist parsonage at Marshall, the Rev. W. Ramsey officiating. The young couple will make their home in Shreveport. Mrs. Cheesman, while a newcomer in Shreveport, has made a host of friends here by her charming and pleasing personality. Besides other social talents, Mrs. Cheesman is an accomplished musician. On her bridal tour, she was garbed in an attractive traveling suit of beige with accessories to match.The Times, Shreveport, Louisiana, February 14, 1927
