- Attached is a newspaper photo ofWinona A. Sprague (I249301)and her 2nd husband Dr. Blinn A.Harris. It is not of great quality, but you can decide ifyou want to post it. It came from a scrap book ofnewspaper articles on file with the Chenango CountyHistorian's Office. The paper was dated 1901. Along withthe photo was the following newspaper article regarding thewedding. I had found their marriage date of June 2, 1901 inother records, but it appears by this article that sinceJune 14, 1901 was a Thursday, that the wedding day on theprevious Sunday would have been June 10th, 1901.
