BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE New York, Thursday, June 25, 1931 Powell--Harrison Miss Elizabeth Underhill Powell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Thomas Powell of Glen Cove, L. I., has completed plans for her marriage to Arthur Dudley Harrison, son of Arthur J. Harrison of Port Washington, L. I. The ceremony will be performed on Saturday at noon in the Matinecock Meeting House of Friends. This will be the first marriage in the historic building in 97 years. Miss Grace Thomas Powell will be maid of honor for her sister and Miss Janet Knapp of Farmlngdale, L. I., will be bridesmaid. Norman L. Cram of Roslyn will be best man. After the ceremony a reception will be held at the Powell residence.
This is probably Arthur Dudley's SSDI as the dates are correct, but I wonder about the Vermont last residence. Location of issue was New York.
