Married1966 1923 Jul 21 at York, PA. The Gettysburg (PA) Times, Mon., 23 Jul 1923, under the heading State News, reported:
York. - Clark H Veazie, or Bridgeport, N. Y., and Miss Mary E Wisman, of this city, were married at St. Matthew's Lutheran Church here Saturday evening, the Rev. Dr. William E. Brown officiating.
In 1891, Clark H Veazie is listed1735 in the Rochester, NY, city directory as proprietor of a carriage repository at 336 and 338 E Main, his house at Brockport. On page 935 of that directory is a half-page advertisement for the Cortland Wagon Co., 336 and 338 East Main St, Clark H Veazie, Gen. Agent.
Clark's obituary1966 relates that he was for many years engaged in the wagon and carriage business in Brockport and Rochester. He was later a traveling salesman with the York Body Corporation for 25 years. He attended Brockport Collegiate Institute; he was a member of the Monroe Lodge of Masons.
Mary's tombstone1969, in a group under the WISMAN monument, reads "MARY E. WISMAN WIFE OF CLARK H. VEAZIE 1875-1950" In that group, among several, are Lewis N Wisman (1849-1935), Kate Smith Wisman, wife of L.N. (1854-1910), and Chas. E. (1872-1929). From that information her family was determined.
Following her rather short marriage to Clark (he died just 5 years after their marriage), Mary lived in York, PA, perhaps to be near her family. In 1937, a York (PA) newspaper article mentioned Norman S Wisman of East Philadelphia St, and his sister, Mary E Veazie of West Market St, left to travel to the West, and would spend some time "at their former home in Illinois." The reference to a home in Illinois isn't clear.
