Notes |
- In her Montgomery County PA Marriage Application she gave her full name as Sylvania R. Craft, her parents given as William and Mary Craft. She was 24 years old and was marrying Harry F. Metz, age 24, the son of Abraham and Mary J. Metz. They married on 2 Sep 1899 in Kulpsville, Montgomery Co.
Sylvania's aunt Ann Shieve's will written in 1902 names a niece Margaret Sylvania Craft. Possibly this Sylvania with a first name? Yes, Margaret appears to be her first name even though she was named as Sylvania in her marriage application. Her death certificate names her as Margaret Metz and her husband as Harry F. Metz. Her parents were not known by the informant, Elmer C. Metz. Her birthplace is given as Kulpsville but I'm using Worcester here as that is what she herself gave in her marriage application.
