Friday's Photo: A Revisit to the Chapel

Early in June, I posted  #52ancestors Post Twenty-Three: Going to the Chapel. This is a collection of wedding photos that belonged to my husband's parents, Doris Staubach and William Quinn. I suspect most of the weddings occurred in New York in the 1950s. In my post, I was asking for clues to the identities or familial relationships the brides or grooms may have had with my husband's family. 

In this post, photos #1 and #3 are now correctly identified. I would love to add last names and family connections to the remaining photos. 

If you know the identity of these brides and/or grooms OR know of any connection they may have to family, please contact me via email or leave a message on my Facebook page. 

1. Previously labeled as unknown, this photo is that of 
Patricia (Patsy) Quinn Ryan, daughter of William Joseph Quinn and Susan Murray, 
my father-in-law's oldest sister. 

2. Marie and John
On the back is written April 1951 - John died Aug. 1951

3. This photo has been correctly identified as Edward F. Ryan and 
Helen Quinn. Helen was my father-in-law's twin. However, 
on the back is written Helen Kenny and William Montero 
along with a telephone number (see below). After a little 
searching, I found Helen Kenny in 1940 living at 
225 West 153rd  Street very close to the Quinn family at 
219 West 153rd Street. Someone must have used the photo to 
jot down her phone number.

4. April 1952 - Marie and Cornelius
Cornelius was a groomsman in Doris and Bill's Wedding

5. Robby and Mary

6. Unknown Bride and Groom
