Agnes was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William McDonough of the Centerville road and was well known and highly esteemed here, where she has lived all of her life. She and Robert were married in a very quiet but pretty service at the Catholic rectory in Ferndale on April 23, 1910. Her sister, Tessie, was her maid of honor and her brother, Walter, acted as best man. The groom was a popular young man of the county seat and, up to a short time ago, he held a responsible position with the Pacific Lumber Co. at Scotia.
