On this date my Dad's first cousin Onna Lee Wilkerson was married in Terre Haute, Indiana to James I. Fishman. The ceremony was conducted in the beautiful Temple Israel and under a traditional Jewish chuppah. She was the daughter of Lawrence Edward "Bud" Wilkerson, in turn the only surviving son of my Great Grandfather Charles Reuben Wilkerson. This picture below is from my Grandmother :Lillian Wilkerson Shaw's photo album.
