Parker - Baguley Wedding at Tenterfield 1932

I trawl through old newspapers looking for entries that could enlarge my knowledge on any early family members in the first 100 years of colonization that I am not aware of.  The second 100 years is not so enigmatic because I was reared by my grandmothers sister who furnished me with barrows of information I am compelled to write about to retain for others.

I am not sure if this wedding is a family member yet?  (BAGULEY)  however it was such a lovely story and it could be that Alice is a grand daughter of ADAM BAGULEY.. who was born A little bit more investigation is required here to find if this 'Mr S Baguley' hails from Warwick and is a son of Adam Baguley.

I also want to find where the farm near Tenterfield that was known as "Springbrook".  That sounds like a Sunday drive to me.

WEDDING 

PARKER— BAGULEY 

A quiet but pretty wedding took place at the Church of England, Tenterfield, on August 13th., when Alice, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S.Baguley, Sandy Flat, was united in the bonds of holy matrimony to Norman, fifth son of Mt. W. Parker and the late Mrs. Parker, of "Springbrook," Tenterfield.
The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her father, looked charming in an ankle length frock of white mariette worn over satin. The beautiful veil was kindly loaned by Mrs. G. Curvey (Sydney). Miss Jessie Baguley, sister of the bride, acted as bridesmaid, and was attired in an ankle length frock of pale pink taffeta, and wore a head dress of tulle to tone. Mr. Stan Parker carried out the duties of best man. The reception was held at Mrs. Rhodes' Cafe, where the bride's mother, wearing a frock of navy crepe de chine, with hat to tone, entertained a large number of guests. Rev. T. May presided, and the usual toasts were honoured.  A number of useful and costly gifts were received.
